21. 合并两个有序链表

题目描述

将两个升序链表合并为一个新的 升序 链表并返回。新链表是通过拼接给定的两个链表的所有节点组成的。 

 

示例 1：

输入：l1 = [1,2,4], l2 = [1,3,4]
输出：[1,1,2,3,4,4]

示例 2：

输入：l1 = [], l2 = []
输出：[]

示例 3：

输入：l1 = [], l2 = [0]
输出：[0]

 

提示：

  • 两个链表的节点数目范围是 [0, 50]
  • -100 <= Node.val <= 100
  • l1 和 l2 均按 非递减顺序 排列

解法

方法一：递归

我们先判断链表 \(l_1\) 和 \(l_2\) 是否为空，若其中一个为空，则返回另一个链表。否则，我们比较 \(l_1\) 和 \(l_2\) 的头节点：

  • 若 \(l_1\) 的头节点的值小于等于 \(l_2\) 的头节点的值，则递归调用函数 \(mergeTwoLists(l_1.next, l_2)\)，并将 \(l_1\) 的头节点与返回的链表头节点相连，返回 \(l_1\) 的头节点。
  • 否则，递归调用函数 \(mergeTwoLists(l_1, l_2.next)\)，并将 \(l_2\) 的头节点与返回的链表头节点相连，返回 \(l_2\) 的头节点。

时间复杂度 \(O(m + n)\)，空间复杂度 \(O(m + n)\)。其中 \(m\) 和 \(n\) 分别为两个链表的长度。

方法二：迭代

我们也可以用迭代的方式来实现两个排序链表的合并。

我们先定义一个虚拟头节点 \(dummy\)，然后循环遍历两个链表，比较两个链表的头节点，将较小的节点添加到 \(dummy\) 的末尾，直到其中一个链表为空，然后将另一个链表的剩余部分添加到 \(dummy\) 的末尾。

最后返回 \(dummy.next\) 即可。

时间复杂度 \(O(m + n)\)，其中 \(m\) 和 \(n\) 分别为两个链表的长度。忽略答案链表的空间消耗，空间复杂度 \(O(1)\)。
