Java Program For Writing A Function To Delete A Linked List

// Java program to delete a linked list
class LinkedList
{
    // Head of the list
    Node head; 

    // Linked List node 
    class Node
    {
        int data;
        Node next;
        Node(int d) 
        { 
            data = d; 
            next = null; 
        }
    }

    // Function deletes the entire 
    // linked list 
    void deleteList()
    {
        head = null;
    }

    // Inserts a new Node at front 
    // of the list. 
    public void push(int new_data)
    {
        /* 1 & 2: Allocate the Node &
                  Put in the data*/
        Node new_node = new Node(new_data);

        // 3. Make next of new Node as head 
        new_node.next = head;

        // 4. Move the head to point to new Node 
        head = new_node;
    }

    public static void main(String [] args)
    {
        LinkedList llist = new LinkedList();

        // Use push() to construct list
        // 1->12->1->4->1  
        llist.push(1);
        llist.push(4);
        llist.push(1);
        llist.push(12);
        llist.push(1);
