Middle Node of a Linked List Problem Statement
Given the head node of a singly linked list, return a pointer to the middle node of the linked list. If there are an odd number of nodes, return the middle one. If there are an even number of nodes, return the node that is farther from the head.
Input:
The first line of input contains an integer ‘T’ representing the number of test cases. Each test case is represented by a single line containing integers that denote the nodes of a linked list, ending with -1 to signify the end of the list.
Output:
For each test case, return a pointer to the middle node of the linked list. If the list is empty, return a null pointer.
Example:
For the linked list: 1->2->3->4->null, the output will be 3 as it is the middle node.
Constraints:
- 1 <= T <= 50
- 1 <= N <= 4*10^4
- -10^9 <= data <= 10^9
- data ≠ -1
Note:
1. You do not need to print anything; just implement the function to return the result. 2. For a linked list with only one node, that node is the middle node. 3. If the list is empty, return a null pointer.
