Odd Even Linked List

Understand how to rearrange a singly linked list so that all nodes at odd indexes come before nodes at even indexes while maintaining their relative order. Learn to implement this in-place manipulation using O(n) time and O(1) extra space to optimize linked list processing.

Statement

Given the head of a singly linked list, rearrange the nodes so that all nodes at odd indexes appear first, followed by all nodes at even indexes.

  • The first node in the list is considered at odd index 1, the second at even index 2, and so on.

  • Within the odd group and the even group, the relative order of the nodes must remain the same as in the original list.

Return the head of the reordered linked list.

Note: You must solve the problem in O(1)O(1) ...
