LeetCode-142.Linked List Cycle II

Given a linked list, return the node where the cycle begins. If there is no cycle, return null.

To represent a cycle in the given linked list, we use an integer pos which represents the position (0-indexed) in the linked list where tail connects to. If pos is -1, then there is no cycle in the linked list.

Note: Do not modify the linked list.

Example 1:

Input: head = [3,2,0,-4], pos = 1
Output: tail connects to node index 1
Explanation: There is a cycle in the linked list, where tail connects to the second node.

Example 2:

Input: head = [1,2], pos = 0
Output: tail connects to node index 0
Explanation: There is a cycle in the linked list, where tail connects to the first node.

Example 3:

Input: head = [1], pos = -1
Output: no cycle
Explanation: There is no cycle in the linked list.

空间复杂度O(n)

public ListNode detectCycle(ListNode head) {//链表 my
        Set<ListNode> nodeSet = new HashSet<ListNode>();
        while(null!=head){
            if(nodeSet.contains(head)){
                return head;
            }
            else{
                nodeSet.add(head);
                head=head.next;
            }
        }
        return null;
    }

空间复杂度O(1)

a=从头结点-》环入口的距离，b=从环入口-》快慢两个结点的相遇处的距离，c=环的长度-b。

快结点走的长度=a+b+c+b，慢结点走的长度=a+b；所以a+b+c+b=2(a+b)，可得a=c。

故慢结点从相遇的结点继续走，一步一个结点，另一结点从头结点开始走，一步一个结点，两个结点相遇处就是环入口。
