# Problem - Detection and Removal of Cycle in Linkedlist.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Idea - run 2 pointers at the start of the linkedlist
|
||||
# increment slow pointer by one and fast pointer by two nodes.
|
||||
# if slow pointer is equal to fast pointer - then cycle exist
|
||||
# to remove the cycle - we need to start slow pointer to start
|
||||
# and another fast pointer to same location it is pointing to
|
||||
# we will stop increamenting slow pointer when slow equals to
|
||||
# fast pointer and break the link from fast.next is None.
