LeetCode Solution, Easy, 21. Merge Two Sorted Lists

合併兩個排序序列

Published

21. Merge Two Sorted Lists

題目敘述

You are given the heads of two sorted linked lists list1 and list2.

Merge the two lists in a one sorted list. The list should be made by splicing together the nodes of the first two lists.

Return the head of the merged linked list.

Example 1:

merge_ex1.jpeg

Input: list1 = [1,2,4], list2 = [1,3,4]
Output: [1,1,2,3,4,4]

Example 2:

Input: list1 = [], list2 = []
Output: []

Example 3:

Input: list1 = [], list2 = [0]
Output: [0]

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in both lists is in the range [0, 50].
  • -100 <= Node.val <= 100
  • Both list1 and list2 are sorted in non-decreasing order.

題目翻譯

有兩個排序序列 list1list2,要將其合併成一個序列並且要是排序的。

解法解析

解法上就是依舊使用 Iteration 和 Recursion 的方式來處理,使用上 Iteration 的方式可以有更好的空間複雜度。

解法範例

Go

Recursion
/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * type ListNode struct {
 *     Val int
 *     Next *ListNode
 * }
 */
func mergeTwoLists(list1 *ListNode, list2 *ListNode) *ListNode {
    if list1 == nil {
        return list2
    }
    if list2 == nil {
        return list1
    }
    if list1.Val < list2.Val {
        list1.Next = mergeTwoLists(list1.Next, list2)
        return list1
    }
    list2.Next = mergeTwoLists(list1, list2.Next)
    return list2
}
Iteration
/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * type ListNode struct {
 *     Val int
 *     Next *ListNode
 * }
 */
func mergeTwoLists(list1 *ListNode, list2 *ListNode) *ListNode {
    var prehead ListNode = ListNode{}

    var prev *ListNode = &prehead
    for list1 != nil && list2 != nil {
        if list1.Val < list2.Val {
            prev.Next = list1
            list1 = list1.Next
        } else {
            prev.Next = list2
            list2 = list2.Next
        }
        prev = prev.Next
    }
    if list1 != nil {
        prev.Next = list1
    } else {
        prev.Next = list2
    }
    return prehead.Next
}

JavaScript

Recursion
/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * function ListNode(val, next) {
 *     this.val = (val===undefined ? 0 : val)
 *     this.next = (next===undefined ? null : next)
 * }
 */
/**
 * @param {ListNode} list1
 * @param {ListNode} list2
 * @return {ListNode}
 */
var mergeTwoLists = function (list1, list2) {
    if (list1 === null) {
        return list2;
    }
    if (list2 === null) {
        return list1;
    }
    if (list1.val < list2.val) {
        list1.next = mergeTwoLists(list1.next, list2);
        return list1;
    }
    list2.next = mergeTwoLists(list1, list2.next);
    return list2;
};
Iteration
/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * function ListNode(val, next) {
 *     this.val = (val===undefined ? 0 : val)
 *     this.next = (next===undefined ? null : next)
 * }
 */
/**
 * @param {ListNode} list1
 * @param {ListNode} list2
 * @return {ListNode}
 */
var mergeTwoLists = function (list1, list2) {
    let prehead = new ListNode(0);

    let prev = prehead;
    while (list1 !== null && list2 !== null) {
        if (list1.val < list2.val) {
            prev.next = list1;
            list1 = list1.next;
        } else {
            prev.next = list2;
            list2 = list2.next;
        }
        prev = prev.next;
    }

    prev.next = list1 || list2;
    return prehead.next;
};

Kotlin

Recursion
