题目:
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.
分析:
从交叉点开始,到链表末尾,两个链表的长度是一样的。
代码:
/**
* Definition for singly-linked list.
* struct ListNode {
* int val;
* ListNode *next;
* ListNode(int x) : val(x), next(NULL) {}
* };
*/
class Solution {
public:
ListNode *getIntersectionNode(ListNode *headA, ListNode *headB) {
ListNode *intersection=NULL;
if(headA==NULL||headB==NULL)
return intersection;
//统计链表A的长度
ListNode * curNodeA=NULL;
int lenA=0;
curNodeA=headA;
while(curNodeA!=NULL)
{
curNodeA=curNodeA->next;
lenA++;
}
//统计链表B的长度
ListNode * curNodeB=NULL;
int lenB=0;
curNodeB=headB;
while(curNodeB!=NULL)
{
curNodeB=curNodeB->next;
lenB++;
}
//定位起始比较点
curNodeA=headA;
curNodeB=headB;
if(lenA>lenB)
{
for(int i=0;i<(lenA-lenB);i++)
{
curNodeA=curNodeA->next;
}
}
else if(lenA<lenB)
{
for(int i=0;i<(lenB-lenA);i++)
{
curNodeB=curNodeB->next;
}
}
//寻找交叉点
while(curNodeA->val!=curNodeB->val||curNodeA->next!=curNodeB->next)
{
curNodeA=curNodeA->next;
curNodeB=curNodeB->next;
if(curNodeA==NULL)
break;
}
intersection=curNodeA;
return intersection;
}
};
