Solution: Linked List Cycle III

Understand how to apply the fast and slow pointers technique to detect cycles in linked lists and calculate their length. This lesson guides you through using two pointers moving at different speeds to identify cycles and efficiently measure them, helping you tackle similar coding interview problems.

Statement

Given the head of a linked list, determine the length of the cycle present in the linked list. If there is no cycle, return 0.

A cycle exists in a linked list if there is some node in the list that can be reached again by continuously following the Next pointer.

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the list is in the range ...
