# 【LeetCode】 876. Middle of the Linked List ## Description > Given a non-empty, singly linked list with head node head, return a middle node of linked list. > If there are two middle nodes, return the second middle node. > Note: > The number of nodes in the given list will be between 1 and 100. > 給一個非空的、單獨的linked list的開頭head,回傳最中間的節點。 > 如果有兩個中間點,回傳第二個點。 > 注意: > 點的數量只會介於1到100之間。 ## Example: ``` Example 1: Input: [1,2,3,4,5] Output: Node 3 from this list (Serialization: [3,4,5]) The returned node has value 3. (The judge's serialization of this node is [3,4,5]). Note that we returned a ListNode object ans, such that: ans.val = 3, ans.next.val = 4, ans.next.next.val = 5, and ans.next.next.next = NULL. Example 2: Input: [1,2,3,4,5,6] Output: Node 4 from this list (Serialization: [4,5,6]) Since the list has two middle nodes with values 3 and 4, we return the second one. ``` ## Solution * 這題很基礎也蠻常考的,強烈建議可以好好記起來。 * 如果先算list的長度再重跑,要跑1.5l,這樣實在太慢了。 * 最好的方法是有兩個點一起跑,第一個一次跑一步,第二個一次跑兩步。 * 當第二個點看到尾巴時,第一個點就是中間點。 * 特別注意點的數量為單數和雙數時要分別處理。 ### Code ```C++=1 /** * Definition for singly-linked list. * struct ListNode { * int val; * ListNode *next; * ListNode(int x) : val(x), next(NULL) {} * }; */ class Solution { public: ListNode* middleNode(ListNode* head) { ListNode* one = head; ListNode* two = head; while(1) { if(two->next == NULL) return one; if(two->next->next == NULL) return one->next; one = one->next; two = two->next->next; } } }; ``` ###### tags: `LeetCode` `C++`
