Leetcode 83. Remove Duplicates from Sorted List 删除排序链表中的重复元素

83. Remove Duplicates from Sorted List

题目描述

Given a sorted linked list, delete all duplicates such that each element appear only once.

示例:

Example 1:

Input: 1->1->2
Output: 1->2

Example 2:

Input: 1->1->2->3->3
Output: 1->2->3

解答1

第一种解法是常规解法，考察链表操作。设两个指针prev, curr；prev指向前一个节点，curr指向当前节点。

当prev的值等于curr的值时令prev->next = curr -> next，更新curr的值。

否则curr = curr -> next，prev = prev -> next。

代码1

class Solution {
public:
    ListNode* deleteDuplicates(ListNode* head) {
        if( head == NULL)
            return head;
        ListNode* curr = head -> next;
        ListNode* prev = head;
        while(curr != NULL) {
            if (curr -> val == prev -> val) {
                prev -> next = curr -> next;
                curr = curr -> next;
            }
            else {
            curr = curr -> next;
            prev = prev -> next;                
            }
        }
    return head;
    }
    
};

解答2

第二种解法是递归操作，先判断递归结束条件。

然后递归求解head -> next，查看返回结果的val和head是否相同。

如果相同head -> next = next -> next，否则head -> next = next。

代码2

class Solution {
public:
    ListNode* deleteDuplicates(ListNode* head) {
        if (head == NULL || head -> next == NULL)
            return head;
        auto next = deleteDuplicates(head -> next);
        if (head -> val == next -> val) {
            head -> next = next -> next;
        }
        else 
            head -> next = next;
    return head;
    }
    
};
