Q6. Linked list detect loop pseudocode
Ans. 
Detecting a loop in a linked list can be efficiently done using Floyd's Cycle-Finding Algorithm.
• Use two pointers: 'slow' moves one step at a time, 'fast' moves two steps.

• If 'slow' and 'fast' meet, a loop exists.

• If 'fast' reaches the end (null), no loop exists.

• Example: For a list 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 2 (loop back to 2), 'slow' and 'fast' will meet at 2.

Q2. What is encapsulation with code
Ans. 
Encapsulation is a fundamental OOP principle that restricts direct access to an object's data and methods.

• It restricts access to certain components, which helps in protecting the integrity of the object's state.

• Example: In a class 'BankAccount', the balance can be private, and methods like 'deposit' and 'withdraw' contro...read more
