ObjectiveThe objective of this problem is to test the students’ understanding on Singly Linked List.Problem DescriptionA list is alternating if its elements alternate between positive and negative. For example:You are given a linked list (original) and Q updates. For each update, check if the updated linked list is alternating. It is guaranteed that the elements in the linked list before and after update will not be 0.There are 3 valid update operations, as explained below. Note that the indices of a list begin with one, not zero.1. M <index> <size>: Move a block of elements of length <size> starting at index <index> to the back of the list. For example, let the current linked list be [1, 3, 5, 4, 2, 6]. The operation “M 2 3” moves [3, 5, 4] to the end of the linked list. The updated linked list is [1, 2, 6, 3, 5, 4].2. R <index> <size>: Remove a block of elements of length <size> starting at index <index> from the linked list. For example, let the current linked list be [1, 3, 5, 4, 6, 7]. The operation “R 2 4” removes [3, 5, 4, 6] from the list. After performing the operation, we will have [1, 7].3. A <index> <size> <value>: Add the elements between index <index> and <index + size – 1> (inclusive) with <value>. For example, let the current linked list be [1, -3, -5, 6, 10]. The operation “A 1 3 4” adds [-3, -5, 6] with value 4. The updated linked list is [1, 1, -1, 10, 10].* It is guaranteed that <size> will not cause the index to go beyond the size of the Linked List (i.e. size + index – 1 LinkedList.size). For every operation, <size> is positive.InputThe first line of the input contains 2 integers N (1 <= N <= 100) and Q (1 <= Q <= 100), where N is the size of the original linked list and Q the number of updates. The next line contains N integers, denoting the elements in the original linked list. The next Q lines are the update operations.OutputPrint “YES” if the updated linked list is alternating, otherwise print “NO”.Alternating listsNon-alternating lists[ -1, 10, -2, 3, -5 ][ -4, 2, -3, -7, 6 ][ 1, -2, 3, -4 ][ 4, 3 ][ 3 ][ 8, -8, 3, 4, -1 ][ ] (empty list)[ -2, -4, -6 ]Page 2 of 2Sample Input4 41 -2 3 -4M 1 3A 1 1 14R 2 2A 2 1 -11Sample OutputYESNO NO YESExplanationN = 4 and Q = 4.Update 1: [1, -2, 3, -4] [-4, 1, -2, 3] and [-4, 1, -2, 3] is alternating.Update 2: [-4, 1, -2, 3] [10, 1, -2, 3] and [10, 1, -2, 3] is NOT alternating.Update 3: [10, 1, -2, 3] [10, 3] and [10, 3] is NOT alternating.Update 4: [10, 3] [10, -8] is alternating.
