Middle of the Linked List
Problem Description
Given the head of a singly linked list, return the middle node of the linked list.
If there are two middle nodes, return the second middle node.
Example 1:
Input: head = [1,2,3,4,5] Output: [3,4,5] Explanation: The middle node of the list is node 3.
Example 2:
Input: head = [1,2,3,4,5,6] Output: [4,5,6] Explanation: Since the list has two middle nodes with values 3 and 4, we return the second one.
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the list is in the range
[1, 100]. 1 <= Node.val <= 100
Solution (JavaScript)
/**
* Definition for singly-linked list.
* function ListNode(val, next) {
* this.val = (val===undefined ? 0 : val)
* this.next = (next===undefined ? null : next)
* }
*/
/**
* @param {ListNode} head
* @return {ListNode}
*/
var middleNode = function(head) {
let count = 1, mid = head;
while(head) {
if (count%2 === 0) mid = mid.next;
head = head.next;
count++;
}
return mid;
};
