题目:
Given a list, rotate the list to the right by k places, where k is non-negative.
For example:
Given 1->2->3->4->5->NULL
and k = 2
,
return 4->5->1->2->3->NULL
.
题解:
这道题主要先理解题意,就是倒着数k个node,从那开始到结尾和之前那部分对调,那个例子就是,4->5拿前面来,1->2->3拿后面去。
几个特殊:
k是可以大于整个list的长度的,所以这时要对k对len取模
如果取模之后得0,相当于不用rotate,直接返回
处理完特殊情况后,就用熟悉的faster/slower双指针解决就好(看到这种linkedlist,倒着数数的,就条件反射了)
先对faster设步长为n,然后faster和slower再一起走,知道faster.next==null,说明slower指向要倒着数的开始点的前一个位置。
所以slow.next就是要返回的newhead,保存一下。
然后把faster.next接到head上,slower.next存为null,作队尾。
这样就把list给rotate了。
这是我想的一种解法,还有一种就是把整个list连起来,变成环,找到切分点断开就行。
解法1:
1 public ListNode rotateRight(ListNode head, int n) {
2 if(head==null||head.next==null||n==0)
3 return head;
4 ListNode fast = head, slow = head,countlen = head;
5 ListNode newhead = new ListNode(-1);
6 int len = 0;
7
8 while(countlen!=null){
9 len++;
countlen = countlen.next;
}
n = n%len;
if(n==0)
return head;
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
fast = fast.next;
while(fast.next!=null){
slow = slow.next;
fast = fast.next;
}
newhead = slow.next;
fast.next = head;
slow.next = null;
return newhead;
}
解法2:
1 public ListNode rotateRight(ListNode head, int n) {
2
3 if (head == null || n == 0)
4 return head;
5 ListNode p = head;
6 int len = 1;//since p is already point to head
7 while (p.next != null) {
8 len++;
9 p = p.next;
}
p.next = head; //form a loop
n = n % len;
for (int i = 0; i < len - n; i++) {
p = p.next;
} //now p points to the prev of the new head
head = p.next;
p.next = null;
return head;
}
