2. Add Two Numbers

Medium

You are given two non-empty linked lists representing two non-negative integers. The digits are stored in reverse order, and each of their nodes contains a single digit. Add the two numbers and return the sum as a linked list.

You may assume the two numbers do not contain any leading zero, except the number 0 itself.

Example 1:

Input: l1 = [2,4,3], l2 = [5,6,4]

Output: [7,0,8]

Explanation: 342 + 465 = 807.

Example 2:

Input: l1 = [0], l2 = [0]

Output: [0]

Example 3:

Input: l1 = [9,9,9,9,9,9,9], l2 = [9,9,9,9]

Output: [8,9,9,9,0,0,0,1]

// Function to create a new ListNode

    struct ListNode* p = l1;
    struct ListNode* q = l2;
    struct ListNode* curr = &dummyHead;
    int carry = 0;

    while (p != NULL || q != NULL) {
        int x = (p != NULL) ? p->val : 0;
        int y = (q != NULL) ? q->val : 0;
        int sum = carry + x + y;
        carry = sum / 10;

        curr->next = createNode(sum % 10);
        curr = curr->next;
