Nth node from end of linked list(Contest)

Nth node from end of linked list easy

PreviousN integers: Easy (Contest)NextNumber of distinct numbers(Contest)

Last updated 2 years ago

Problem Statement :

Given a linked list consisting of L nodes and given a number N. The task is to find the Nth node from the end of the linked list. Input First line of input contains number of testcase T. For each testcase, first line of input contains number of nodes in the linked list L and the number N. Next line contains N nodes of linked list.

User Task: The task is to complete the function getNthFromLast() which takes two arguments: reference to head and N and you need to return Nth from end.

Constraints: 1 <= T <= 100 1 <= N <= L <= 10^3 Output For each testcase, output the data of node which is at Nth distance from end. Example Input: 2 9 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 4 5 10 5 100 5

Output: 8 -1

Explanation: Testcase 1: In the first example, there are 9 nodes in linked list and we need to find 2nd node from end. 2nd node from end os 8. Testcase 2: In the second example, there are 4 nodes in linked list and we need to find 5th from end. Since 'n' is more than number of nodes in linked list, output is -1.

```java
/*
// information about the class Node
class Node
{
    int data;
    Node next;
    Node(int d) 
    {
        data = d; 
        next = null;
    }
}
*/
static int getNthFromLast(Node head, int n)
{

       Node first = head;
       Node second = head;

       for(int i=0;i<n-1;i++){
           second = second.next;
           if(second == null){
               return -1;
           }
       }

       while(second.next != null){
           first = first.next;
           second = second.next;
       }

       return first.data;
}
```
