The tail of the list lives at the position before the head. This is mathematically noted as: ``` (head-1) mod size. ``` Unfortunately C, does not have a modulus operator, but a remainder operator (%). The reminder operation has a different result than the modulus if (head -1) is a negative number and size is not a power of two. Adding size to (head-1) allows the code to run with any value of size. This does not change the current behaviour of the driver, as the size is always a power of two, but avoid tedious debugging if we ever change its size.
