Challenge: Detect Loop in a Linked List

Loops in linked lists can be dangerous. Now, you'll create an algorithm to detect them.

Problem Statement

By definition, a loop is formed when a node in your linked list points to a previously traversed node.

You must implement the detectLoop() function which will take a linked list as input and deduce whether or not a loop is present.

Input

A Singly linked list.

Output

Returns True if the given linked list contains a loop. Otherwise, it returns False

Sample Input

Linkedlist = 7->14->21->7 // Both '7's are the same node. Not duplicates.

Sample Output

True
