问题描述如下:
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.
cpp代码如下:
class Solution {
private:
int getLengthAndEnd(ListNode* head,ListNode*& tail){
tail=head;
int cnt=1;
while(tail->next){
++cnt;
tail=tail->next;
}
return cnt;
}
public:
ListNode *getIntersectionNode(ListNode *headA, ListNode *headB) {
if(headA==NULL||headB==NULL)
return NULL;
ListNode* ta=NULL,*tb=NULL;
int la=getLengthAndEnd(headA,ta);
int lb=getLengthAndEnd(headB,tb);
if(ta!=tb)
return NULL;
if(la>lb){
for(int i=0;i<la-lb;++i)
headA=headA->next;
}
else{
for(int i=0;i<lb-la;++i)
headB=headB->next;
}
while(headA){
if(headA==headB)
return headA;
headA=headA->next;
headB=headB->next;
}
}
};
