Solution

Here is a step-by-step solution in Python:

  1. First, we need to define a class for the Node of the linked list.
class Node:
    def __init__(self, data=None):
        self.data = data
        self.next = None
  1. Then, we define a class for the linked list itself, with methods to add nodes and remove the middle node.
class LinkedList:
    def __init__(self):
        self.head = None

    def add_node(self, data):
        if not self.head:
            self.head = Node(data)
        else:
            cur = self.head
            while cur.next:
                cur = cur.next
            cur.next = Node(data)

    def remove_middle(self):
        slow = self.head
        fast = self.head
        prev = None

        while fast and fast.next:
            fast = fast.next.next
            prev = slow
            slow = slow.next

        if prev:
            prev.next = slow.next
  1. Now, we can create a linked list, add nodes to it, and remove the middle node.
ll = LinkedList()
ll.add_node(5)
ll.add_node(4)
ll.add_node(3)
ll.add_node(2)
ll.add_node(1)

ll.remove_middle()
  1. To print the linked list before and after removing the middle node, we can add a method to the LinkedList class.
def print_list(self):
    cur = self.head
    while cur:
        print(cur.data, end=' ')
        cur = cur.next
    print()
  1. Now, we can print the linked list before and after removing the middle node.
ll = LinkedList()
ll.add_node(5)
ll.add_node(4)
ll.add_node(3)
ll.add_node(2)
ll.add_node(1)

print("Original list: ", end='')
ll.print_list()

ll.remove_middle()

print("List after deleting middle node: ", end='')
ll.print_list()

This will output:

Original list: 5 4 3 2 1 
List after deleting middle node: 5 4 2 1

Problem Statement23hr leftGiven a linked list, write a program to insert or delete nodes from the beginning.Input:n = 5[6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1]Notice that here, we are inserting each element from the beginning. Hence when you insert a new element, the list becomes newEle + OldLL.For example, if you add 3 to [4, 5, 6] then it becomes [3, 4, 5, 6].Output:[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] -> after inserting elements [2, 3, 4, 5, 6] -> after deleting the beginning elementConstraint:If the linked list is empty, print an empty space.

Auxiliary Given a singly linked list, find the middle of the linked list. For example, if the given linked list is 1->2->3->4->5 then the output should be 3. If there are even nodes, then there would be two middle nodes, we need to print the second middle element. For example, if the given linked list is 1->2->3->4->5->6 then the output should be 4.
