Mastering Linked List Techniques: Pairwise Swapping, Nth Node Removal, Intersection, and Cycle Detection
Problem: 24. Swap Nodes in Pairs
To swap two adjacent nodes, we need a pointer standing just before the pair. A dummy sentinel node placed before the head simplifies edge cases. The traversal pointer curr starts at the sentinel. Swapping involves rerouting next pointers in three steps while preserving references that might be lost.
The loop con ...
