Clone a linked list with random fields in typescript

Ts program for Clone a linked list with random fields. Here problem description and other solutions.

// TypeScript Program
// Clone a linked list with next and random field
// Linked List Node
class LinkNode
{
	public data: number;
	public next: LinkNode;
	public random: LinkNode;
	constructor(data: number)

		this.data = data;
		this.next = null;
		this.random = null;
	}
}

	constructor()
	{

	}
	// Add new node at the end of linked list
	public insert(value: number)
	{
		// Create  node
		var node = new LinkNode(value);

	}
