1474. Delete N Nodes After M Nodes of a Linked List

中文文档

Description

You are given the head of a linked list and two integers m and n.

Traverse the linked list and remove some nodes in the following way:

• Start with the head as the current node.
• Keep the first m nodes starting with the current node.
• Remove the next n nodes
• Keep repeating steps 2 and 3 until you reach the end of the list.

Return the head of the modified list after removing the mentioned nodes.

 

Example 1:

Input: head = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13], m = 2, n = 3
Output: [1,2,6,7,11,12]
Explanation: Keep the first (m = 2) nodes starting from the head of the linked List  (1 ->2) show in black nodes.
Delete the next (n = 3) nodes (3 -> 4 -> 5) show in read nodes.
Continue with the same procedure until reaching the tail of the Linked List.
Head of the linked list after removing nodes is returned.

Example 2:

Input: head = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11], m = 1, n = 3
Output: [1,5,9]
Explanation: Head of linked list after removing nodes is returned.

 

Constraints:

• The number of nodes in the list is in the range [1, 104].
• 1 <= Node.val <= 106
• 1 <= m, n <= 1000

 

Follow up: Could you solve this problem by modifying the list in-place?
