链表是空节点，或者有一个值和一个指向下一个链表的指针，因此很多链表问题可以用递归来处理。

#  1. 找出两个链表的交点

[160. Intersection of Two Linked Lists (Easy)](https://leetcode.com/problems/intersection-of-two-linked-lists/description/)

例如以下示例中 A 和 B 两个链表相交于 c1：

```html
A:          a1 → a2
                    ↘
                      c1 → c2 → c3
                    ↗
B:    b1 → b2 → b3
```

但是不会出现以下相交的情况，因为每个节点只有一个 next 指针，也就只能有一个后继节点，而以下示例中节点 c 有两个后继节点。

```html
A:          a1 → a2       d1 → d2
                    ↘  ↗
                      c
                    ↗  ↘
B:    b1 → b2 → b3        e1 → e2
```


要求时间复杂度为 O(N)，空间复杂度为 O(1)。如果不存在交点则返回 null。

设 A 的长度为 a + c，B 的长度为 b + c，其中 c 为尾部公共部分长度，可知 a + c + b = b + c + a。

当访问 A 链表的指针访问到链表尾部时，令它从链表 B 的头部开始访问链表 B；同样地，当访问 B 链表的指针访问到链表尾部时，令它从链表 A 的头部开始访问链表 A。这样就能控制访问 A 和 B 两个链表的指针能同时访问到交点。

如果不存在交点，那么 a + b = b + a，以下实现代码中 l1 和 l2 会同时为 null，从而退出循环。

```java
public ListNode getIntersectionNode(ListNode headA, ListNode headB) {
    ListNode l1 = headA, l2 = headB;
    while (l1 != l2) {
        l1 = (l1 == null) ? headB : l1.next;
        l2 = (l2 == null) ? headA : l2.next;
    }
    return l1;
}
```

如果只是判断是否存在交点，那么就是另一个问题，即 [编程之美 3.6]() 的问题。有两种解法：

- 把第一个链表的结尾连接到第二个链表的开头，看第二个链表是否存在环；
- 或者直接比较两个链表的最后一个节点是否相同。

#  2. 链表反转

[206. Reverse Linked List (Easy)](https://leetcode.com/problems/reverse-linked-list/description/)

递归

```java
public ListNode reverseList(ListNode head) {
    if (head == null || head.next == null) {
        return head;
    }
    ListNode next = head.next;
    ListNode newHead = reverseList(next);
    next.next = head;
    head.next = null;
    return newHead;
}
```

头插法

```java
public ListNode reverseList(ListNode head) {
    ListNode newHead = new ListNode(-1);
    while (head != null) {
        ListNode next = head.next;
        head.next = newHead.next;
        newHead.next = head;
        head = next;
    }
    return newHead.next;
}
```

#  3. 归并两个有序的链表

[21. Merge Two Sorted Lists (Easy)](https://leetcode.com/problems/merge-two-sorted-lists/description/)

public ListNode mergeTwoLists(ListNode l1, ListNode l2) {
    if (l1 == null) return l2;
    if (l2 == null) return l1;
    if (l1.val < l2.val) {
        l1.next = mergeTwoLists(l1.next, l2);
        return l1;
    } else {
        l2.next = mergeTwoLists(l1, l2.next);
        return l2;
    }
}
```

    head.next = deleteDuplicates(head.next);
    return head.val == head.next.val ? head.next : head;
}
```
