Today I have done leetcode's March LeetCoding Challenge with cpp.

March LeetCoding Challenge 22

Description

Palindrome Linked List

Given the head of a singly linked list, return true if it is a palindrome or false otherwise.

 

Example 1:

Input: head = [1,2,2,1]
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: head = [1,2]
Output: false

 

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the list is in the range [1, 105].
  • 0 <= Node.val <= 9

 

Follow up: Could you do it in O(n) time and O(1) space?

Solution

class Solution {
  ListNode* reverseList(ListNode* head) {
    ListNode* prev=nullptr;
    ListNode* curr=head;
    while(curr) {
      ListNode* next=curr->next;
      curr->next=prev;
      prev=curr;
      curr=next;
    }
    return prev;
  }
public:
  bool isPalindrome(ListNode* head) {
    int n=0;
    ListNode* iter=head;
    while(iter) iter=iter->next, n++;
    if(n<2) return true;
    // printf("-->%d\n", n);
    iter=head;
    for(int i=1;i<n/2;++i) iter=iter->next;
    ListNode* iter2 = (n%2) ? iter->next->next : iter->next;
    iter->next=nullptr;
    // printf("iter2->val=%d\n",xiter2->val);
    iter=reverseList(head);
    while(iter) {
      if(iter->val!=iter2->val) return false;
      iter=iter->next;
      iter2=iter2->next;
    }
    return true;
  }
};
