Problem: Given a list and a value x, the linked list into two, i.e. all the nodes is smaller than or equal to x is greater than before in the node x, and the relative order of the original node is stored.
Ideas: the use of a pointer to a demarcation point, traverse the list is less than x encountered node is inserted into the cut-off point.
java code:
ListNode partitionLinkedList(ListNode head,int x){
ListNode curr=head;
ListNode dummy=null;
if(curr.val<x){
dummy=curr;
}
while(curr.next!=null){
if(curr.next.val<x){
if(dummy==null){
ListNode tmp=curr.next;
curr.next=curr.next.next;
tmp.next=head;
dummy=tmp;
head=dummy;
}
else{
ListNode tmp=curr.next;
curr.next=curr.next.next;
tmp.next=dummy.next;
dummy.next=tmp;
dummy=tmp;
}
}
else{
curr=curr.next;
}
}
return head;
}
