Solution Review: Return the Nth Node From The End
Learn how to return the nth node from the end of a singly linked list using two approaches: a double iteration method that calculates list length and a more efficient two-pointer technique that finds the node in a single pass. Understand their time complexities and implementation details to solve linked list challenges effectively.

Solution 1: Double iteration
In this approach, the main goal is to figure out the index of the node you need to reach. The algorithm follows these simple steps:
- Calculate the length of the linked list.
- Check if
nis within the length.
