解决思路
(1) 两链表都是单向链表:判断两链表的末尾节点是否相同;
(2) 两链表中一个有环,一个没环:不可能相交;
(3) 两链表都有环:slow-fast双指针方法。
程序
public class ListIntersection {// two single listpublic boolean isIntersectionOfTwoSingleList(ListNode l1, ListNode l2) {if (l1 == null || l2 == null) {return false;}// whether the end of two list is sameListNode endOfList1 = getEndOfList(l1);ListNode endOfList2 = getEndOfList(l2);return endOfList1 == endOfList2;}private ListNode getEndOfList(ListNode head) {if (head == null) {return null;}ListNode node = head;while (node.next != null) {node = node.next;}return node;}// two list with cyclepublic boolean isIntersectionOfTwoListWithCycle(ListNode l1, ListNode l2) {if (l1 == null || l2 == null) {return false;}ListNode slow = l1, fast = l2;while (fast.next != null || fast != null || slow != null) {slow = slow.next;fast = fast.next.next;if (slow == fast) {return true;}}return false;}
}
Follow up
求出两个链表相交的第一个节点(如果存在的话)。
(1) 两条单链表
a. 求出两条链表的长度及长度之差diff,然后设立两个指针指向两链表的头结点,其中指向长链表头结点的指针向前移动diff步;
b. 然后同时移动两指针,直到所指节点相同(地址相同)为止,否则返回null。
(2) 两条链表有环
首先slow-fast,直到相遇为止,其中任意一个指针指回其头结点,然后slow和fast指针同时移动,直到相遇,相遇的节点为第一个相交的节点。
(注意:可能有两个相交的节点)
