Remove Nth Node From End of List
Given a linked list, remove the nth node from the end of list and return its head.
For example,
Given linked list: 1->2->3->4->5, and n = 2.
After removing the second node from the end, the linked list becomes 1->2->3->5.
Note:
Given n will always be valid.
Try to do this in one pass.
其实挺简单的一道题,不过还是没想出来。最后看别人的思路,恍然大悟。。。。
线性思路很巧妙啊,保存两个相差n的指针,当后一个指针指向最后一个元素时,前一个指针就指向要删除元素的前一个元素了。

public class leet19 {

int val;

public static void main(String[] args) {//main方法

ListNode node = leet.removeNthFromEnd2(head, 1);
System.out.println(node.val);
System.out.println("-------------------------------");
ListNode n = head;
while(n.next != null){
System.out.println(n.next.val);
n = n.next;
}
}
//自己的思路,循环两遍,没有加头结点
public ListNode removeNthFromEnd(ListNode head,int n){
ListNode Node = head;//要找的节点
ListNode returnNode;
int totall = 1;//记录总节点数
while(true){//循环一遍链表,确定链表长度
if(Node.next == null){
break;
}
totall++;
Node = Node.next;
}
if(n > totall || n <= 0){
System.out.println("n大于链表长度或者为负为0");
return null;
}
Node = head;//Node节点重新指向第一个节点
int nthEnd = totall - n;//确定要删除的节点的前一个节点的位置
int count = 1;
while(count < nthEnd){//循环的找出要删除的节点的前一个节点
count++;
Node = Node.next;
}
returnNode = Node.next;//要删除并返回的节点
if(n == 1){//如果要删除的是最后一个节点则,倒数第二个节点的next指针指向null
Node.next = null;
}else{
Node.next = returnNode.next;//删除节点
}
return returnNode;
}
//线性方法,看了别人的思路写的,这次加上了加了头结点,深刻体会到头结点的方便性
