Solution: Linked List Cycle

Explore the approach to detect cycles in a linked list by using fast and slow pointers. Understand how moving pointers at different speeds helps identify recurring nodes, and implement this efficient algorithm to solve linked list cycle detection problems with O(n) time and O(1) space complexity.

Statement

Given the head of a linked list, determine whether the list contains a cycle. A cycle exists if a node in the list can be revisited by continuously following the next pointers. Return TRUE if a cycle is present; otherwise, return FALSE.

Constraints:

Let n be the number of nodes in a linked list.

  • 00\leq n 500\leq500
  • 105-10^5 \leq
