链表相关题

141. Linked List Cycle

Given a linked list, determine if it has a cycle in it.

Follow up:
Can you solve it without using extra space? (Easy)

分析:

采用快慢指针,一个走两步,一个走一步,快得能追上慢的说明有环,走到nullptr还没有相遇说明没有环。

代码:

 /**
* Definition for singly-linked list.
* struct ListNode {
* int val;
* ListNode *next;
* ListNode(int x) : val(x), next(NULL) {}
* };
*/
class Solution {
public:
bool hasCycle(ListNode *head) {
if (head == NULL) {
return ;
}
ListNode* slow = head;
ListNode* fast = head;
while (fast != nullptr && fast->next != nullptr) {
slow = slow->next;
fast = fast->next->next;
if (slow == fast) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
};

142. Linked List Cycle II

Given a linked list, return the node where the cycle begins. If there is no cycle, return null.

Note: Do not modify the linked list.

Follow up:
Can you solve it without using extra space?(Medium)

分析:

1)同linked-list-cycle-i一题,使用快慢指针方法,判定是否存在环,并记录两指针相遇位置(Z);
2)将两指针分别放在链表头(X)和相遇位置(Z),并改为相同速度推进,则两指针在环开始位置相遇(Y)。
 
证明如下:
如下图所示,X,Y,Z分别为链表起始位置,环开始位置和两指针相遇位置,则根据快指针速度为慢指针速度的两倍,可以得出:
2*(a + b) = a + b + n * (b + c);即
a=(n - 1) * b + n * c = (n - 1)(b + c) +c;
注意到b+c恰好为环的长度,故可以推出,如将此时两指针分别放在起始位置和相遇位置,并以相同速度前进,当一个指针走完距离a时,另一个指针恰好走出 绕环n-1圈加上c的距离。
故两指针会在环开始位置相遇。
