Reverse Alternate Nodes in a Singly Linked List

Given a singly linked list of integers, you need to reverse alternate nodes and append them to the end of the list.

Example:

Input:
1->2->3->4
Output:
1->3->4->2
Explanation:

Assuming 0-based indexing, odd-indexed nodes are considered alternate. In this case, nodes with values 2 and 4 are alternates. Separate them: 1->3 (without alternates) and 2->4 (alternates). Reverse alternates: 4->2. Append reversed alternates to the end: 1->3->4->2.

Input:

The first and only line contains elements of the singly linked list separated by spaces, terminated by -1. (-1 is not a list element.)

Output:

For each test case, output is a space-separated list of integers representing the resultant linked list, ending with -1.

Constraints:

  • 0 <= N <= 10^6
  • -10^9 <= DATA <= 10^9 and DATA != -1

Where N is the number of nodes in the linked list.

Time Limit: 1 second.

Note:

You are not required to print anything; just implement the function as specified.
