Journey
I started preparing for DSA since my first year, covering all the topics. I also worked on computer fundamental topics and completed some projects. In my third year of college, I came across an opportunity called Infytq, so I applied. After several rounds of interviews, I was selected for this role.
Application story
Infosys conducts Infytq every year. If you apply directly, you receive the test link, and the process begins. There are several rounds, including MCQs, multiple coding rounds, and then the final interview.

Ninjas is practicing problems on the linked list. He came across a problem in which he has given a linked list of ‘N’ nodes and two integers, ‘LOW’ and ‘HIGH’. He has to return the linked list ‘HEAD’ after reversing the nodes between ‘LOW’ and ‘HIGH’, including the nodes at positions ‘LOW’ and ‘HIGH’.

Problem approach

This is a simple question, you can linearly reverse a linked list by simple pointer manipulation.
