Title: Enter a list, output the list of the countdown K nodes, in order to conform to the majority of the habit, the topic from 1 to count, that is, the tail node of the list is the penultimate node.
Method 1: The list is traversed first to get the number of the list n, the penultimate K node is n-k+1 and then traverse the list, find the N-k+1 node is the penultimate K node; This method traverses two linked lists;
Method 2: First traverse the list to press the linked list into a stack, then out of the stack, the K-time out of the stack is the K-node;
Method 3: First reverse the linked list, then traverse
Method 4: Define two pointers, the first pointer starts from the head pointer of the list to traverse forward k-1; the second pointer remains motionless, starting with step K, the second pointer also begins to traverse, two pointer gaps k-1 distance
, when the first pointer goes to the tail node, the second pointer is exactly at the bottom of the K-node;
Code:
listnode* Findkthfromtail (listnode* plisthead,int k) {if (Plisthead = NULL | | k = = 0)//Prevent empty linked list and K value equals 0 case {return NUL L;} listnode* pahead = Plisthead; listnode* pbehind = null;for (int i = 0; i < k-1; i++) {if (Pahead->m_pnext! = NULL) {pahead = Pahead->m_pnext;} Else{return NULL;}} Pbehind = Plisthead;while (pahead->m_pnext! = NULL) {Pahead = Pahead->m_pnext;pbehind = Pbehind->m_pnext;} return pbehind;}
