[LeetCode] 876. Middle of the Linked List

Given the head of a singly linked list, return the middle node of the linked list.

If there are two middle nodes, return the second middle node.

Example 1:

Input: head = [1,2,3,4,5]
Output: [3,4,5]
Explanation: The middle node of the list is node 3.

Example 2:

Input: head = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
Output: [4,5,6]
Explanation: Since the list has two middle nodes with values 3 and 4, we return the second one.

Constraints:

• The number of nodes in the list is in the range [1, 100].
• 1 <= Node.val <= 100

链表的中间节点。

题目即是题意，注意如果有两个中间节点（总节点个数为偶数）的话，返回第二个中间节点。

思路是快慢指针，快指针停下的时候，慢指针所在的位置即是所求。

时间O(n)

空间O(1)

Java实现

class Solution {
    public ListNode middleNode(ListNode head) {
        ListNode slow = head;
        ListNode fast = head;
        while (fast != null && fast.next != null) {
            slow = slow.next;
            fast = fast.next.next;
        }
        return slow;
    }
}

JavaScript实现

/**
 * @param {ListNode} head
 * @return {ListNode}
 */
var middleNode = function(head) {
    let slow = head;
    let fast = head;
    while (fast !== null && fast.next !== null) {
        slow = slow.next;
        fast = fast.next.next;
    }
    return slow;
};
