Given a linked list consisting of L nodes and given a number N. The task is to find the Nth node from the end of the linked list.
Example 1:
Input: N = 2 LinkedList: 1->2->3->4->5->6->7->8->9 Output: 8 Explanation: In the first example, there are 9 nodes in linked list and we need to find 2nd node from end. 2nd node from end os 8.
Example 2:
Input: N = 5 LinkedList: 10->5->100->5 Output: -1 Explanation: In the second example, there are 4 nodes in the linked list and we need to find 5th from the end. Since 'n' is more than the number of nodes in the linked list, the output is -1.
Your Task:
The task is to complete the function getNthFromLast() which takes two arguments: reference to head and N and you need to return Nth from the end or -1 in case node doesn't exist..
Note:
Try to solve in single traversal.
Expected Time Complexity: O(N).
Expected Auxiliary Space: O(1).
Constraints:
1 <= L <= 106
1 <= N <= 106
