LeetCode 876. Middle of the Linked List
原题链接在这里:https://leetcode.com/problems/middle-of-the-linked-list/
题目:
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.
Note:
- The number of nodes in the given list will be between
1
and100
.
题解:
walker每次跳一步. runner每次跳两步. runner 跳到尾时, walker就是中点.
list偶数长度时, 中点找中间两个前者时, while的终止条件到是(runner != null && runner.next != null && runner.next.next != null).
找后者时, while的终止条件是(runner != null && runner.next != null).
Time Complexity: O(n).
Space: O(1).
