Ans. 
Implement insertion sort algorithm on a singly linked list with integer values.
• Traverse the linked list and for each node, find its correct position in the sorted list.

• Remove the node from the original list and insert it at the correct position in the sorted list.

• Repeat this process until all nodes are sorted.

• Ensure the implementation is in-place, without using extra space.

• Handle edge cases like empty list or single no...read more
