What is the worst-case time complexity of insertion in a singly linked list?

Step 1: Understand what a singly linked list is. It is a data structure where each element (node) points to the next one.
Step 2: Know that when we want to insert a new element, we need to find the right place to put it.
Step 3: In the worst case, we might have to look at every node in the list to find where to insert the new element.
Step 4: If there are 'n' nodes in the list, this means we could potentially check all 'n' nodes.
Step 5: Therefore, the time it takes to insert in the worst case is proportional to the number of nodes, which is expressed as O(n).
