Problem Statement: Delete Node In A Linked List

Given a singly linked list of integers and a reference to a node, your task is to delete that specific node from the linked list. Each node in the linked list has a unique value.

Input:

The first line contains an integer 'T' indicating the number of test cases. For each test case, the first line consists of space-separated integers representing the linked list nodes, ending with -1 (which is not a part of the linked list node values). The second line contains an integer K, the value of the node to be deleted.

Output:

For each test case, after deleting the specified node, print the modified linked list's node values, separated by a single space, followed by '-1' to denote the end of the list. Each result should be printed on a new line.

Example:

Input:
2
4 5 1 9 -1
5
4 5 1 9 -1
1
Output:
4 1 9 -1
4 5 9 -1

Constraints:

  • 1 <= T <= 100
  • 2 <= N <= 5000
  • -109 <= NODE.DATA <= 109 and node.data != -1

Where 'N' denotes the number of nodes in the linked list and 'NODE.DATA' is the value of a node.

Note:

• The reference to the head of the linked list is not provided.
• The node to be deleted is not the tail node.
• Each node's value in the linked list is unique.
• The node to be deleted will always exist in the linked list.
