Lintcode 223. Palindrome Linked List (Medium) (Python)

Palindrome Linked List

Description:

Implement a function to check if a linked list is a palindrome.

Example
Given 1->2->1, return true

Challenge
Could you do it in O(n) time and O(1) space?

Code:

"""
Definition of ListNode
class ListNode(object):
    def __init__(self, val, next=None):
        self.val = val
        self.next = next
"""

class Solution:
    """
    @param head: A ListNode.
    @return: A boolean.
    """
    def reverse(self, head):
        nH = None
        while head:
            tmp = head
            head = head.next
            tmp.next = nH
            nH = tmp
        return nH

    def isPalindrome(self, head):
        # write your code here
        if not head or not head.next:
            return True

        slow = fast = head
        while fast and fast.next:
            slow = slow.next
            fast = fast.next.next
        head2 = self.reverse(slow)

        while head and head2:
            if head.val!=head2.val:
                return False
            else:
                head = head.next
                head2 = head2.next
        return True
