/**
 * Circular Scan Scheduling (C-SCAN) is a disk scheduling algorithm that
 * works by moving the disk arm in one direction to service requests until
 * it reaches the end of the disk. Once it reaches the end, instead of reversing
 * direction like in the SCAN algorithm, the arm moves back to the starting point
 * without servicing any requests. This ensures a more uniform wait time for all
 * requests, especially those near the disk edges. The algorithm then continues in
 * the same direction, making it effective for balancing service time across all disk sectors.
