  • Q1. Coding question on dll and bits
  • Q2. Detect and remove loop in ll
  • Ans. 

    To detect and remove a loop in a linked list, we can use Floyd's Cycle Detection Algorithm.

    • Use two pointers, slow and fast, to traverse the linked list

    • If there is a loop, the fast pointer will eventually meet the slow pointer

    • Once the loop is detected, reset one of the pointers to the head and move both pointers at the same pace until they meet again to find the start of the loop
