Solution: Linked List Cycle

Explore how to determine if a linked list contains a cycle using the fast and slow pointers method. Learn to implement a space-efficient algorithm that detects cycles in one pass, understand time and space complexity, and gain hands-on experience with this common coding interview pattern.

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
