Program To Add A Node In The End Of Singly Linked List

Description

To add node in the end of the list - 
case 1: When list is empty
	create a node and assign the address of newly created node to the head
Case 2: When list has few elements
	step 1 : create a new node 
	step 2 : Traverse the list to reach last node
	step 3 : Assign the address of newly created node to address field of last node
	
Note: Here head contains the address of first node

The node value = 4 and their address = 6884688
The node value = 2 and their address = 6884720
The node value = 7 and their address = 6884736

Enter the node data of new node to be added at the end: 5

Output:
The linked list after addition of node at end -
