    [LeetCode 289] Odd Even Linked List

    Published May 27, 2022 [  LinkedList  ]

    Problem

    Given the head of a singly linked list, group all the nodes with odd indices together followed by the nodes with even indices, and return the reordered list.

    The first node is considered odd, and the second node is even, and so on.

    Note that the relative order inside both the even and odd groups should remain as it was in the input.

    You must solve the problem in O(1) extra space complexity and O(n) time complexity.

    Example 1:

    Input: head = [1,2,3,4,5]
    Output: [1,3,5,2,4]
    

    Example 2:

    Input: head = [2,1,3,5,6,4,7]
    Output: [2,3,6,7,1,5,4]
    

    Constraints:

    • The number of nodes in the linked list is in the range [0, 10^4].
    • -10^6 <= Node.val <= 10^6

    Thoughts

    • Try with 3 & 4 node first
    • Handle special case

    TypeScript

    /**
     * Definition for singly-linked list.
     * class ListNode {
     *     val: number
     *     next: ListNode | null
     *     constructor(val?: number, next?: ListNode | null) {
     *         this.val = (val===undefined ? 0 : val)
     *         this.next = (next===undefined ? null : next)
     *     }
     * }
     */
    
    function oddEvenList(head: ListNode | null): ListNode | null {
        if(head === null || head.next === null || head.next.next === null){
            return head;
        }
        
        let h1: ListNode = head;
        let h2: ListNode = head.next;
        const dummy: ListNode = h2;
        
        while(h2 && h2.next){
            h1.next = h2.next;
            h1 = h1.next;
            h2.next = h1.next
            h2 = h2.next;
        }
        h1.next = dummy;
        
        return head;
    };
