program to merge two sorted circular linked list to create a single circular linked list code example

Example: write a function that will concatenate two circular linked list producing one circular linked list

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

struct node {
   int data;
   struct node *next;

struct node *even = NULL;

   // Allocate memory for new node;
   struct node *link = (struct node*) malloc(sizeof(struct node));
   struct node *current;

   link->data = data;
   link->next = NULL;

   if(data%2 == 0) {
