101. Merge a Linked list into another Linked List at Alternate Positions
Objective: Given two linked lists, merge one list into another at alternate positions, if second link list has extra nodes, print them as well
Example:
5 - 10 - 15 - 20 -25 - null 3 - 6 -9 - 12 -15 -18 -21 - null Output : 5 - 3 - 10 - 6 -15 - 9 - 20 - 12 - 25 -15 - null Remaining List: 18 - 21 - null
Approach:
- Say Node A and Node B are the starting of two linked list.
- Take Node temp = A ( store the head of the link list one).
- Take Node A1 = A.next and Node B1 = B.next;
- Make A.next points to the B.
- Make B.next = A1. (at this point B is inserted between A and A1).
- Do the above two steps till one of the list burns out.
- Print the list using the temp node.
- Print the remaining list in B, B will be pointing to the head of the remaining list.
Output:
-5-10-15-20-25 -3-6-9-12-15-18 Alternate Mergred List -5-3-10-6-15-9-20-12-25-15 Remaining Second List -18
