You can alway do this: Circular Doubly Linked List has properties of both doubly linked list and circular linked list in which two consecutive elements are linked or connected by previous and next pointer and the last node points to first node by next pointer and also the first node points to last node by previous pointer. // Structure of the node struct node { int data; struct node *next; // Pointer to next node struct node *prev; // Pointer to previous node };

Both of them are kind of linked list with tweaks. Maybe circular linked list is easy. You just link the first and last elements.
