Lintcode099.Reorder List

Posted 2020-09-18 Vincent丶

题目：

Given a singly linked list L: L0 → L1 → … → Ln-1 → Ln

reorder it to: L0 → Ln → L1 → Ln-1 → L2 → Ln-2 → …

Example

Given 1->2->3->4->null, reorder it to 1->4->2->3->null.

题解：

　　 Spliting the list from the middle into two lists. One from head to middle, and the other from middle to the end. Then we reverse the second list. Finally we merge these two lists

Solution 1 ()

class Solution {
public:
    void reorderList(ListNode *head) {
        if (!head || !head->next) {
            return;
        }
        ListNode* mid = findMiddle(head);
        ListNode* right = reverse(mid->next);
        mid->next = nullptr;
        merge(head, right);
    }
    ListNode* findMiddle(ListNode* head) {
        ListNode* slow = head;
        ListNode* fast = head->next;
        while (fast && fast->next) {
            slow = slow->next;
            fast = fast->next->next;
        }
        
        return slow;
    }
    ListNode* reverse(ListNode* head) {
        if (!head || !head->next) {
            return head;
        }
        
        ListNode* pre = nullptr;
        while (head) {
            ListNode* tmp = head->next;
            head->next = pre;
            pre = head;
            head = tmp;
        }
        return pre;
    }
    void merge(ListNode* left, ListNode* right) {
        ListNode* dummy = new ListNode(-1);
        int idx = 0;
        while (left && right) {
            if (idx % 2 == 0) {
                dummy->next = left;
                left = left->next;
            } else {
                dummy->next = right;
                right = right->next; 
            }
            dummy = dummy->next;
            ++idx;
        }    
        if (left) {
            dummy->next = left;
        } else {
            dummy->next = right;
        }
    }
};
