Q2. How do you detect a loop in a linked list?
Ans. 
To detect a loop in a linked list, we can use Floyd's Cycle Detection Algorithm.
• Initialize two pointers, slow and fast, at the head of the linked list.

• Move slow pointer by one step and fast pointer by two steps.

• If there is a loop, the two pointers will eventually meet.

• Alternatively, we can use a hash set to store visited nodes and check for duplicates.
