Solution

To rotate a linked list to the right by k positions, we can use the following code:

  1. Declare two pointers, slow and fast, and initialize them both to the head of the linked list.
  2. Use a for loop to move the fast pointer k positions ahead. This will ensure that the distance between the slow and fast pointers is k.
  3. After the loop, the fast pointer will be pointing to the kth node from the head of the linked list.
  4. Now, we can start rotating the linked list. To do this, we need to make the kth node the new head of the linked list.
  5. To achieve this, we need to update the next pointers of the nodes. Set the next pointer of the last node to null, and the next pointer of the kth node to the current head.
  6. Finally, update the head pointer to point to the kth node, and return the updated head.

Here is the code snippet:

public ListNode rotateRight(ListNode head, int k) {
    ListNode slow = head;
    ListNode fast = head;
    
    for (int i = 0; i < k; i++) {
        fast = fast.next;
    }
    
    // Rotate the linked list
    while (fast.next != null) {
        slow = slow.next;
        fast = fast.next;
    }
    
    // Update the pointers
    fast.next = head;
    head = slow.next;
    slow.next = null;
    
    return head;
}

This code will rotate the linked list to the right by k positions.
