The linked list is a data structure which makes use of dynamic memory. Hence it is possible to handle the list of any desired length using the linked list. Various applications of linked list are -

1. The linked list is used for performing polynomial operations such as addition, multiplication evaluation and so on.

2. The linked list is used for handling the set operations.

3. The stack data structure can be implemented using linked list.

 4. The queue data structure can be implemented using linked list.
