Copy List with Random Pointer
A linked list is given such that each node contains an additional random pointer which could point to any node in the list or null.
Return a deep copy of the list.
思路:
比起标准的链表深拷贝,还需要了解一个random pointer的信息。需要建立起新的链表单元和旧的链表单元之间的一一对应关系,然后将所有旧的random pointer更换为新的random pointer。这样就要求两次扫描,O(2n)。
题解:
/** * Definition for singly-linked list with a random pointer. * struct RandomListNode { * int label; * RandomListNode *next, *random; * RandomListNode(int x) : label(x), next(NULL), random(NULL) {} * }; */ class Solution { public: RandomListNode *copyRandomList(RandomListNode *head) { map<RandomListNode*, RandomListNode*> corresponding; corresponding[nullptr] = nullptr; RandomListNode* nhead = new RandomListNode(0); RandomListNode* last = nhead; RandomListNode* iter = head; // copy the original list while(iter != nullptr) { RandomListNode* new_node = new RandomListNode(iter->label); new_node->random = iter->random; last->next = new_node; corresponding[iter] = new_node; last = last->next; iter = iter->next; } // re-iterate to link the random pointer iter = nhead -> next; while(iter != nullptr) { iter->random = corresponding[iter->random]; iter = iter->next; } iter = nhead; nhead = nhead->next; delete iter; return nhead; } };
