Read MoreFind the Intersection Point of Two Linked Lists in Java
A Linked List is a linear data structure in which each node has two blocks such that one block contains the value or data of the node and the other block contains the address of the next field.Let us assume that we have a linked list such that each node contains a random pointer which is pointing to the other nodes in the list. The task is to find the node at which two linked lists intersect each other. If they don’t intersect, then return NULL or empty as output.For ExampleInput-1:Output:2Explanation: Since the given linked list intersects at the node with ...
