Linked List Algorithms: Pairwise Swapping, Targeted Removal, and Cycle Analysis

Swapping Adjacent Nodes in Pairs Manipulating node connections uniformly requires a sentinel (dummy) node to eliminate edge cases for the head element. To exchange adjacent pairs, position a reference pointer immediately before the pair undergoing modification. The iterative approach tracks three critical references: the node preceding the pair ...
