题目地址:https://leetcode.com/problems/intersection-of-two-linked-lists/
Write a program to find the node at which the intersection of two singly linked lists begins.
For example, the following two linked lists:
A: a1 → a2
↘
c1 → c2 → c3
↗
B: b1 → b2 → b3
begin to intersect at node c1.
Notes:
- If the two linked lists have no intersection at all, return null.
- The linked lists must retain their original structure after the function returns.
- You may assume there are no cycles anywhere in the entire linked structure.
- Your code should preferably run in O(n) time and use only O(1) memory.
找出两个链表相交的第一个节点,加入两个链表有相交的节点,那么从这个节点的以后两个链表都是相同的,不止是val相同,地址也是相同的,如果用两层for循环,肯定能找到这个节点,不过这么做的时间复杂度是O(m*n),其中m与n分别是两个链表的长度。
有没有遍历一次就能找到相交节点呢,当然是可以的,我们可以把两个链表的每个节点依次散列在哈希表中,然后再去检查第一次出现冲突的节点,那么这个节点就是相交节点。
public class IntersectionOfTwoLinkedLists {
public static ListNode getIntersectionNode(ListNode headA, ListNode headB) {
if (headA == null || headB == null)
return null;
HashMap<ListNode, Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
ListNode p = headA;
while (p != null) {
map.put(p, 0);
p = p.next;
}
p = headB;
while (p != null) {
if (map.containsKey(p))
break;
p = p.next;
}
return p;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
ListNode a1 = new ListNode(1);
a1.next = new ListNode(2);
a1.next.next = new ListNode(3);
a1.next.next.next = new ListNode(4);
a1.next.next.next.next = new ListNode(5);
ListNode b1 = new ListNode(1);
b1.next = new ListNode(2);
b1.next.next = a1.next.next;
System.out.println(getIntersectionNode(a1, b1).val);
}
}
