Reverse a linked list from position m to n. Do it in-place and in one-pass.
For example:
Given 1->2->3->4->5->NULL, m = 2 and n = 4,
return 1->4->3->2->5->NULL.
Note:
Given m, n satisfy the following condition:
1 ≤ m ≤ n ≤ length of list.
题意:给定整数m,n和单链表头结点,将链表从m->n的结点顺序逆转,O(n)时间要求
解决思路:先找到m->n子链表头结点的前驱结点,然后改变子链表的顺序就可以了。如题中例子,找到2->3->4这个子链表,然后得到3->2->4,然后4->3->2
代码:
public class Solution {
public ListNode reverseBetween(ListNode head, int m, int n) {
if(head == null) return null;
ListNode dummy = new ListNode(0); // create a dummy node to mark the head of this list
dummy.next = head;
ListNode pre = dummy; // make a pointer pre as a marker for the node before reversing
for(int i = 0; i<m-1; i++) pre = pre.next;
ListNode start = pre.next; // a pointer to the beginning of a sub-list that will be reversed
ListNode then = start.next; // a pointer to a node that will be reversed
// 1 - 2 -3 - 4 - 5 ; m=2; n =4 ---> pre = 1, start = 2, then = 3
// dummy-> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5
for(int i=0; i<n-m; i++)
{
start.next = then.next;
then.next = pre.next;
pre.next = then;
then = start.next;
}
// first reversing : dummy->1 - 3 - 2 - 4 - 5; pre = 1, start = 2, then = 4
// second reversing: dummy->1 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 5; pre = 1, start = 2, then = 5 (finish)
return dummy.next;
}
}
