mid of linked list
To find the middle of a linked list in C++, you can use the slow and fast pointer approach. Here's an explanation for each step:
- Initialize two pointers, slow and fast, to the head of the linked list.
- Traverse the linked list using the fast pointer, moving two steps at a time, and the slow pointer, moving one step at a time.
- When the fast pointer reaches the end of the list (fast->next is NULL or fast is NULL), the slow pointer will be at the middle of the list.
- Return the node pointed to by the slow pointer as the middle of the linked list.
