【面试题037】两个链表的第一个公共结点
题目:
输入两个链表,找出它们的第一个公共结点。链表结点定义如下:
1
2 3 4 5 |
struct ListNode
{ int m_nKey; ListNode *m_pNext; } |
思路一:
蛮力法,在第一个链表上面遍历,对每个遍历到的结点,我们都在第二个链表上面顺序遍历。
如果第二个链表上面有和第一个链表上面当前遍历到的结点相同的结点,那么就找到了相同的结点。
——时间复杂度是 O(m*n)。
思路二:
遍历结点分别入两个栈当中,同时对比top(),如果相同那么同时出栈,知道找到最后一个相同的结点。
——辅助空间为O(m+n),时间复杂度为O(m+n)。
思路三:
先分别遍历两个链表得到两个链表的长度,那么就知道那个链表比较长,以及比短的长了多少。
在第二次遍历的时候先在长的链表上面多走那么多步。接着同时在两个链表上面同时遍历。
找到的第一个相同的结点 就是它们的第一个公共的结点。
——时间复杂度是O(m+n),但是我们不需要额外的存储空间啦。
