let A and B be 2 linked list. Make a copy of A(say C)such that data part of a node in C keeps the pointer to the next node in A. Reverse B. Keep traversing A and C simultaneously. If at any point the data part of C and next node pointer of A are different, then that is the required node.
start comparing the addresses at the point where the lists are at the same height(in this case at value 9 and 10) that's at list1.length-list2.length index. O(n) time.
Given an integer n, write a function that returns count of trailing zeroes in n!. Examples: Input: n = 5 Output: 1 Factorial of 5 is 20 which has one trailing 0. Input: n = 20 Output: 4 Factorial of 20 is 2432902008176640000 which has 4 trailing zeroes. Input: n = 100 Output: 24

@jainendra try without using any extra space...

ReplyDeletecan you elaborate a little bit...
