Consider the following class definitions:

X730: Linked Chain Find Second To Last

Consider the following class definitions:

public class LinkedChain<T> {
    private Node<T> firstNode;
    private int numberOfEntries;

    public LinkedChain() {
        firstNode = null;
        numberOfEntries = 0;
    }// end default constructor


    public int getNumberOfEntries() {
        return numberOfEntries;
    }



    public void push(T newEntry) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        firstNode = new Node<T>(newEntry, firstNode);
        numberOfEntries++;
    }
}

Where Node is defined as:

public class Node<T> {
     private T data; // Entry in bag
     private Node<T> next; // Link to next node

     public Node(T dataPortion) {
         this(dataPortion, null);
     } // end constructor


     public Node(T dataPortion, Node<T> nextNode) {
         data = dataPortion;
         next = nextNode;
     } // end constructor


     public T getData() {
         if (data != null) {
             return data;
         }
         return null;
     }


     public Node getNext() {
         return next;
     }


     public void setNext(Node<T> newNext) {
         next = newNext;
     }
}

Below, write a Linked Chain method that will return reference to the second to last node. If the Linked Chain is only one node, return null. If the first node in the Linked Chain is null (meaning the chain is empty), return null.
