力扣算法——142LinkedListCycleII
Given a linked list, return the node where the cycle begins. If there is no cycle, return null
.
To represent a cycle in the given linked list, we use an integer pos
which represents the position (0-indexed) in the linked list where tail connects to. If pos
is -1
, then there is no cycle in the linked list.
Note: Do not modify the linked list.
Example 1:
Input: head = [3,2,0,-4], pos = 1 Output: tail connects to node index 1 Explanation: There is a cycle in the linked list, where tail connects to the second node.
Example 2:
Input: head = [1,2], pos = 0 Output: tail connects to node index 0 Explanation: There is a cycle in the linked list, where tail connects to the first node.
Example 3:
Input: head = [1], pos = -1 Output: no cycle Explanation: There is no cycle in the linked list.

Can you solve it without using extra space?
Solution:
使用快慢指针,若快慢指针能重合上,那就有环
然后快指针从头移动,与此同时慢指针一起先后移动,当两个指针再次重合时,则就是环的入口!
