在循环单链表中，链表的最后一个节点包含指向链表的第一个节点的指针。可以有循环单向链表以及循环双链表。
遍历一个循环单链表，直到到达开始的同一个节点。循环单链表类似于链表，但它没有开始也没有结束。任何节点的下一部分都不存在NULL值。
下图显示了一个循环单链表。
循环链表主要用于操作系统中的任务维护。有许多例子，循环链表用于计算机科学，包括浏览器，记录用户过去访问过的页面记录也可以以循环链表的形式保存，并且可以在点击前一个按钮时再次访问。
1. 循环链表的内存表示
在下图中，包含4个科目中学生分数的循环链表的内存表示形式。但是，该图显示了循环列表如何存储在内存中。链表的开头或head指向索引为1的元素，data部分包含分数值为13，next部分包含地址为4。它与存储在链表的第4个索引处的节点链接。
但是，由于内存中是循环链表，因此链表的最后一个节点包含链表的第一个节点的地址。
还可以在内存中有多个链表，并且不同的起始指针指向链表中的不同起始节点。 最后一个节点由其next部分标识，该部分包含链表的起始节点的地址。必须能够识别任何链表的最后一个节点，以便可以找到遍历链表时需要执行的迭代次数。
2. 循环单向链表上的操作
2.1. 插入编号
操作
描述
1
将节点添加到循环单链表的开头。
2
将节点添加到循环单链表的未尾。
2.2. 删除和遍历编号
操作
描述
1
删除循环单链表中的开头节点。
2
删除循环单链表中的末尾的节点。
3
将循环单链表中节点的数据项与给定数据进行比较，如果找到则返回链表中数据项所在的位置，否则返回null。
4
访问链表的每个元素至少一次，以执行某些特定操作。
C语言中程序循环单链表实现所有操作，参考以下示例代码 -
#include
#include

{
int data;
struct node *next;

void beginsert();
