Flatten a Multilevel Doubly Linked List

**Problem Statement:** Given the required input arguments, write an efficient algorithm to solve the **Flatten a Multilevel Doubly Linked List** problem. Implement the required logic as specified by standard definitions for this classic algorithmic challenge. **Hint / Expected Approach:** Iterative stack or recursive child-first **Edge Cases to Consider:** - (1) No child pointers - (2) All nodes have children - (3) Child is leaf

Examples

Example 1
Input: 1-2-3-4-5-6, 3->7-8-9-10, 8->11-12
Output: 1-2-3-7-8-11-12-9-10-4-5-6
Explanation: Classic example
Example 2
Input: [1,2,null,3], node 2 has child 3
Output: 1-2-3
Explanation: Simple child
Example 3
Input: [1]
Output: [1]
Explanation: Single node

Constraints

  • ▪The number of nodes in the list is in the range [0, 500]
  • ▪-100 <= Node.val <= 100
  • ▪Solve in-place without copying node structures

Watch Out For Edge Cases

  • ▪No child pointers
  • ▪All nodes have children
  • ▪Child is leaf
