Description:
This program modifies a singly linked list such that it retains the first M nodes and then deletes the next N nodes, repeating this process until the end of the list.
This operation helps understand pointer manipulation and traversal in linked lists.
Algorithm / Approach:
Start from the head of the linked list.
Traverse M nodes, keeping them as part of the final list.
After reaching the Mth node, start deleting the next N nodes.
Connect the Mth node’s next pointer to the node right after the deleted section.
Repeat this process until the end of the list is reached.
