237. Delete Node in a Linked List

Write a function to delete a node (except the tail) in a singly linked list, given only access to that node.

Given linked list -- head = [4,5,1,9], which looks like following:

 

Example 1:

Input: head = [4,5,1,9], node = 5
Output: [4,1,9]
Explanation: You are given the second node with value 5, the linked list should become 4 -> 1 -> 9 after calling your function.

Example 2:

Input: head = [4,5,1,9], node = 1
Output: [4,5,9]
Explanation: You are given the third node with value 1, the linked list should become 4 -> 5 -> 9 after calling your function.

 

如果真的删除当前结点，则之前的结点和之后的结点无法连接。可以把后面结点的值放到该结点，舍弃后面的结点，相当于间接删除该结点。

class Solution {
public:
    void deleteNode(ListNode* node) {
        node->val=node->next->val;
        node->next=node->next->next;
    }
};
