Remove Nth Node From End of ListStep-by-Step Visualization

Efficiently removing a node from the end requires either two passes or a clever one-pass two-pointer technique.

Problem Statement

Given the head of a linked list, remove the nth node from the end of the list and return its head.

Approach

Use two pointers, fast and slow. Move fast n steps ahead. Then move both fast and slow until fast reaches the end. The slow pointer will be just before the node to delete. Update slow.next to skip the target node.

Time & Space Complexity

Time complexity is O(n). Space complexity is O(1).
