Split Linked List in Parts
Explore techniques to split a singly linked list into k consecutive parts with size differences of at most one. Understand how to handle uneven splits by allocating extra nodes to earlier parts and represent empty parts as null, maintaining the original list order. Practice coding this efficient in-place linked list manipulation to prepare for technical interviews.

Statement
You are given head of a singly linked list and an integer, k. Your task is to split the linked list into k consecutive parts.
Each part should have a size as equal as possible, with the difference between any two parts being at most
. If the list cannot be evenly divided, the earlier parts should have more nodes than the later ones.
Any parts that cannot be filled with nodes should be represented as NULL.
The parts must appear in the same order as in the input-linked list.
Return an array of ...
