[LeetCode] Delete Node in a Linked List
Well, this problem is just a trick. In fact, we cannot really delete the given node, but just delete its next node after copying the data of the next node to it.
The code is as follows.
1 class Solution { 2 public: 3 void deleteNode(ListNode* node) { 4 ListNode* next = node -> next; 5 node -> val = next -> val; 6 node -> next = next -> next; 7 } 8 };
If you are familiar with pointer operations, the code can be even shorter, just 1-line!
1 class Solution { 2 public: 3 void deleteNode(ListNode* node) { 4 *node = *node -> next; 5 } 6 };
