Reverse Linked List II

Source

Problem

Reverse a linked list from position m to n.

Example

Given 1->2->3->4->5->NULL, m = 2 and n = 4, return 1->4->3->2->5->NULL.

Note

Given m, n satisfy the following condition: 1 ≤ m ≤ n ≤ length of list.

Challenge

Reverse it in-place and in one-pass

题解

此题在上题的基础上加了位置要求，只翻转指定区域的链表。由于链表头节点不确定，祭出我们的dummy杀器。此题边界条件处理特别tricky，需要特别注意。

  1. 由于只翻转指定区域，分析受影响的区域为第m-1个和第n+1个节点
  2. 找到第m个节点，使用for循环n-m次，使用上题中的链表翻转方法
  3. 处理第m-1个和第n+1个节点
  4. 返回dummy->next

        if (head == NULL || m > n) {
            return NULL;

        ListNode *dummy = new ListNode(0);
        dummy->next = head;
        ListNode *node = dummy;

        for (int i = 1; i != m; ++i) {
            if (node == NULL) {
                return NULL;
            } else {
                node = node->next;
            }
        }

        ListNode *premNode = node;
        ListNode *mNode = node->next;
        ListNode *nNode = mNode, *postnNode = nNode->next;
        for (int i = m; i != n; ++i) {
            if (postnNode == NULL) {
                return NULL;
            }

            ListNode *temp = postnNode->next;
            postnNode->next = nNode;
            nNode = postnNode;
            postnNode = temp;
        }
        premNode->next = nNode;
        mNode->next = postnNode;

        return dummy->next;
    }

    public ListNode reverseBetween(ListNode head, int m , int n) {
        ListNode dummy = new ListNode(0);
        dummy.next = head;

        // find the mth node
        ListNode premNode = dummy;
        for (int i = 1; i < m; i++) {
            premNode = premNode.next;
        }

        // reverse node between m and n
        ListNode prev = null, curr = premNode.next;
        while (curr != null && (m <= n)) {
            ListNode nextNode = curr.next;
            curr.next = prev;
            prev = curr;
            curr = nextNode;
            m++;
        }

        // join head and tail before m and after n
        premNode.next.next = curr;
        premNode.next = prev;

        return dummy.next;
    }
}

源码分析

  1. 处理异常
  2. 使用dummy辅助节点
  3. 找到premNode——m节点之前的一个节点
  4. 以nNode和postnNode进行遍历翻转，注意考虑在遍历到n之前postnNode可能为空
  5. 连接premNode和nNode，premNode->next = nNode;
  6. 连接mNode和postnNode，mNode->next = postnNode;

务必注意node 和node->next的区别！！，node指代节点，而node->next指代节点的下一连接。
