876. Middle of the Linked List
Description
Given a non-empty, singly linked list with head node head, return a middle node of linked list.
If there are two middle nodes, return the second middle node.
Example 1:
Input: [1,2,3,4,5]
Output: Node 3 from this list (Serialization: [3,4,5])
The returned node has value 3. (The judge's serialization of this node is [3,4,5]).
Note that we returned a ListNode object ans, such that:
ans.val = 3, ans.next.val = 4, ans.next.next.val = 5, and ans.next.next.next = NULL.
Example 2:
Input: [1,2,3,4,5,6]
Output: Node 4 from this list (Serialization: [4,5,6])
Since the list has two middle nodes with values 3 and 4, we return the second one.
思路
使用快慢指针,快指针一次移动2个节点,慢指针移动一个节点。当快指针到达链表最后一个元素或者为空时,慢指针指向中心节点。

/**
* Definition for singly-linked list.
* public class ListNode {
* int val;
* ListNode next;
* ListNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
class Solution {
public ListNode middleNode(ListNode head) {
if(head == null){
return null;
}
ListNode slow = head;
ListNode fast = head;
while(fast != null && fast.next != null){
slow = slow.next;
fast = fast.next.next;
}
return slow;
}
}
21. Merge Two Sorted Lists
Description
Merge two sorted linked lists and return it as a new list. The new list should be made by splicing together the nodes of the first two lists.
Example:
Input: 1->2->4, 1->3->4
Output: 1->1->2->3->4->4
思路
- 若l1为空,返回l2;反之亦然。
- 比较两链表表头节点,将小的节点赋给新的链表,将原链表移动一个节点,以备后续使用。
- 依次遍历两链表,取出较小节点复制给新链表;当某一链表为空时,退出循环。
- 将还未遍历结束的链表剩余节点加入新链表中。

/**
* Definition for singly-linked list.
* public class ListNode {
* int val;
* ListNode next;
* ListNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
class Solution {
public ListNode mergeTwoLists(ListNode l1, ListNode l2) {
if(l1 == null){
return l2;
}
if(l2 == null){
return l1;
}
ListNode p = l1;
ListNode q = l2;
ListNode merge = null;
if(p.val <= q.val){
merge = p;
p = p.next;
} else{
merge = q;
q = q.next;
}
ListNode curr = merge;
while(p != null && q != null){
if(p.val <= q.val){
curr.next = p;
curr = curr.next;
p = p.next;
} else {
curr.next = q;
curr = curr.next;
q = q.next;
}
}
if(p == null){
curr.next = q;
} else{
curr.next = p;
}
return merge;
}
}
206. Reverse Linked List
Description
Reverse a singly linked list.
Example:
Input: 1->2->3->4->5->NULL
Output: 5->4->3->2->1->NULL
思路
设置三个指针,第一个指针为空,第二个指针为头结点,第三个指针为第二个节点。遍历链表,根据三个指针将链表反转。

/**
* Definition for singly-linked list.
* public class ListNode {
* int val;
* ListNode next;
* ListNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
class Solution {
public ListNode reverseList(ListNode head) {
if(head == null){
return null;
}
ListNode pre = null;
ListNode p = head;
ListNode q = p.next;
while(q != null){
p.next = pre;
pre = p;
p = q;
q = q.next;
}
p.next = pre;
return p;
}
}
