Description
If I use the below-insert method, I will give the input as insert(value, lengthOfTheList).
In this scenario, the value is added to the end of the list, but the tail is not changed to the end of the list.
In the above example, I add the value at the end of the list, but the tail is not changed to the end.
🐛 tail has another node.
