24. Swap Nodes in Pairs - Medium
Given a linked list, swap every two adjacent nodes and return its head.
Example:
Given1->2->3->4
, you should return the list as2->1->4->3
.
Note:
- Your algorithm should use only constant extra space.
- You may not modify the values in the list's nodes, only nodes itself may be changed.
每次交换两个节点,用一个dummy node,放在head前,用以最后return head,需要两个指针,起始时p1 = dummy, p2 = head
先记录一下p2.next.next的位置 (nextnode),此位置也是下一次swap的起点。p1指向p2.next,p2.next指向p2,p2指向nextnode。然后p1向前一步移动到p2位置,p2向前移动到nextnode的位置,直到 p1.next == null或者 p2.next = null,循环结束
e.g.
0 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> null 0->2, 2->1, 1->3 => 2->1->3->4->null
p1 n
p2
0 -> 2 -> 1 -> 3 -> 4 -> null 1->4, 4->3, 3->null => 1->4->3->null
p1 n
p2
0 -> 2 -> 1 -> 4 -> 3 -> null 1->4, 4->3, 3->null => 1->4->3->null
p1
p2
time: O(n), space: O(1)
