@Sandeep: Without storing explicit pointer to last element, how would you be able to access last element in a Singly Linked List in O(1) ??? Is there any parallel data structure that needs to be maintained ?? and if it is larger than size of 2 explicit pointers to last and first elements then 2 pointer strategy is obviously better !!
