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.
在一次循环中找到链表的倒数第N个节点,并且删除它,然后返回修改后的链表。
找到倒数第N个节点的方法是,创建两个指针left和right,left指向链表头,right指向left右边第N个节点,然后将两个指针以此后移,当right指针指向链表尾时,left指针指向的是倒数第N个节点;这里需要删除第N个节点,因此要找到倒数第N+1个节点,又考虑到可能要删除头结点,因此在头结点前再增加一个节点。代码如下:
class Solution {
public ListNode removeNthFromEnd(ListNode head, int n) {
ListNode pre = new ListNode(0), left = pre, right = pre;
pre.next = head;
while(n-- > 0)
right = right.next;
while(right.next != null){
left = left.next;
right = right.next;
}
left.next = left.next.next;
return pre.next;
}
}
