You’re given the pointer to the head node of a linked list, an
integer to add to the list and the position at which the integer must be
inserted. Create a new node with the given integer, insert this node at
the desired position and return the head node. A position of 0
indicates head, a position of 1 indicates one node away from the head
and so on. The head pointer given may be null meaning that the initial
list is empty.
Input Format
You have to complete the
Output Format
Insert the new node at the desired position and
Sample Input
NULL, data = 3, position = 0
3 --> NULL, data = 4, position = 0
Sample Output
1. we have an empty list and position 0. 3 becomes head.
2. 4 is added to position 0, hence 4 becomes head.
Note
For the purpose of evaluation the list has been initialised with a node with data=2. Ignore it, this is done to avoid printing empty lists while comparing output.

Input Format
You have to complete the
Node* Insert(Node* head, int data, int position)
method which takes three arguments - the head of the linked list, the
integer to insert and the position at which the integer must be
inserted. You should NOT read any input from stdin/console. position
will always be between 0 and the number of the elements in the list (inclusive).Output Format
Insert the new node at the desired position and
return
the head of the updated linked list. Do NOT print anything to stdout/console.Sample Input
NULL, data = 3, position = 0
3 --> NULL, data = 4, position = 0
Sample Output
3 --> NULL
4 --> 3 --> NULL
Explanation 1. we have an empty list and position 0. 3 becomes head.
2. 4 is added to position 0, hence 4 becomes head.
