You are given a singly linked list that may or may not contain a cycle. You are supposed to return the node where the cycle begins, if a cycle exists, else return 'NULL'.


A cycle occurs when a node's next pointer returns to a previous node in the list.


Example:
In the given linked list, there is a cycle starting at position 0, hence we return 0.

You are given a Singly Linked List of integers. You have to find the N-th node from end.

For Example
If the given list is (1 -> -2 -> 0 -> 4) and N=2:

example

Then the 2nd node from the end is 0.
Problem approach

Maintain two pointers – reference pointer and main pointer. Initialize both reference and main pointers to head. First, move the reference pointer to n nodes from head. Now move both pointers one by one until the reference pointer reaches the end. Now the main pointer will point to nth node from the end. Return the main pointer.
