一、题目
Given a linked list and a value x, partition it such that all nodes less than x come before nodes greater than or equal to x.
You should preserve the original relative order of the nodes in each of the two partitions.
For example, Given
1->4->3->2->5->2
and x = 3, return1->2->2->4->3->5
.
给定一个单链表和数值x,划分链表使得所有小于x的节点排在大于等于x的节点之前。
你应该保留两部分内链表节点原有的相对顺序。
二、解题思路
依据题意,是要根据值x对链表进行分割操作,具体是指将所有小于x的节点放到不小于x的节点之前,咋一看和快速排序的分割有些类似,但是这个题的不同之处在于只要求将小于x的节点放到前面,而并不要求对元素进行排序。
这种分割的题使用两路指针即可轻松解决。左边指针指向小于x的节点,右边指针指向不小于x的节点。由于左右头节点不确定,我们可以使用两个dummy节点。
三、解题代码
/**
* Definition for singly-linked list.
* public class ListNode {
* int val;
* ListNode next;
* ListNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
public class Solution {
public ListNode partition(ListNode head, int x) {
ListNode leftDummy = new ListNode(0);
ListNode leftCurr = leftDummy;
ListNode rightDummy = new ListNode(0);
ListNode rightCurr = rightDummy;
ListNode runner = head;
while (runner != null) {
if (runner.val < x) {
leftCurr.next = runner;
leftCurr = leftCurr.next;
} else {
rightCurr.next = runner;
rightCurr = rightCurr.next;
}
runner = runner.next;
}
// cut off ListNode after rightCurr to avoid cylic
rightCurr.next = null;
leftCurr.next = rightDummy.next;
return leftDummy.next;
}
}
