    "Reversing a linked list is a very popular question. We have two approaches to reverse the linked list: Iterative approach and recursion approach. Iterative approach (JavaScript) function reverseLL(head){ if(head === null) return head; let prv = null; let next = null; let cur = head; while(cur){ next = cur.next; //backup cur.next = prv; prv = cur; cur = next; } head = prv; return head; } Recursion Approach (JS) function reverseLLByRecursion("

    "We can use dictionary to store cache items so that our read / write operations will be O(1). Each time we read or update an existing record, we have to ensure the item is moved to the back of the cache. This will allow us to evict the first item in the cache whenever the cache is full and we need to add new records also making our eviction O(1) Instead of normal dictionary, we will use ordered dictionary to store cache items. This will allow us to efficiently move items to back of the cache a"
