Single Linked list is a linear data structure. It is used as a fundamental data structure in computer programming. It contains a collection of nodes which are connected by only one pointer in one direction. Each node is having two parts the first part contains the data and second part contains the address of the next node. The first part is called data field or information field and the second part is called as link field or next address field.
