[LeetCode] 19. Remove Nth Node From End of List Java
题目:Given a linked list, remove the nth node from the end of list and return its head.
For example,
Given linked list: 1->2->3->4->5, and n = 2.
After removing the second node from the end, the linked list becomes 1->2->3->5.
Note:
Given n will always be valid.
Try to do this in one pass.
题意及分析:开始我的做法是先遍历一遍取得长度,然后长度减去n就知道要删除正着数第几个元素,不符合要求,因为只能遍历一次,所以只能用两个指针,一个快指针先走n步,一个慢指针从头开始走,这样当快指针走到尾部的时候,慢指针所指的就是要删除元素的前一个元素。
代码:
/** * Definition for singly-linked list. * public class ListNode { * int val; * ListNode next; * ListNode(int x) { val = x; } * } */ class Solution { public ListNode removeNthFromEnd(ListNode head, int n) { if(head == null) return null; ListNode fast = head;//因为只能遍历一次,所以只能用两个指针,一个快指针先走n步,一个慢指针从头开始走,这样当快指针走到尾部的时候,慢指针所指的就是要删除元素的前一个元素。 ListNode low = head; for(int i=0;i<n;i++){ fast = fast.next; } if(fast == null){ head = head.next; return head; } while(fast.next != null){ low = low.next; fast = fast.next; } low.next = low.next.next; return head; } }
