         * When fast and slow meet for the first time at point P, fast travelled (a + b + c + b)
         * and slow travelled (a + b), and we know fast travels twice fast as slow, so we have:
         * a + b + c + b = 2*(a + b), this gives us a == c;
         * so at point P, we start a new slow2 pointer from the head, when both slow and slow2 travelled distance a, they must meet
         * at cycle entrance point Q.
