问题
I wonder if there exists some logic to reverse a singly-linked list using only two pointers.
The following is used to reverse the single linked list using three pointers namely p, q, r:
struct node {
int data;
struct node *link;
};
void reverse() {
struct node *p = first,
*q = NULL,
*r;
while (p != NULL) {
r = q;
q = p;
p = p->link;
q->link = r;
}
first = q;
}
Is there any other alternate to reverse the linked list? What would be the best logic to reverse a singly linked list, in terms of time complexity?
回答1:
Any alternative? No, this is as simple as it gets, and there's no fundamentally-different way of doing it. This algorithm is already O(n) time, and you can't get any faster than that, as you must modify every node.
It looks like your code is on the right track, but it's not quite working in the form above. Here's a working version:
#include <stdio.h>
typedef struct Node {
char data;
struct Node* next;
} Node;
void print_list(Node* root) {
while (root) {
printf("%c ", root->data);
root = root->next;
}
printf("\n");
}
Node* reverse(Node* root) {
Node* new_root = 0;
while (root) {
Node* next = root->next;
root->next = new_root;
new_root = root;
root = next;
}
return new_root;
}
int main() {
Node d = { 'd', 0 };
Node c = { 'c', &d };
Node b = { 'b', &c };
Node a = { 'a', &b };
Node* root = &a;
print_list(root);
root = reverse(root);
print_list(root);
return 0;
}

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I don't think your three-pointer solution actually works. When I used it in the following test harness, the list was reduced to one node, as per the following output:
==========
4
3
2
1
0
==========
4
==========
You won't get better time complexity than your solution since it's O(n) and you have to visit every node to change the pointers, but you can do a solution with only two extra pointers quite easily, as shown in the following code:
#include <stdio.h>
// The list element type and head.
struct node {
int data;
struct node *link;
};
static struct node *first = NULL;
// A reverse function which uses only two extra pointers.
void reverse() {
// curNode traverses the list, first is reset to empty list.
struct node *curNode = first, *nxtNode;
first = NULL;
// Until no more in list, insert current before first and advance.
while (curNode != NULL) {
// Need to save next node since we're changing the current.
nxtNode = curNode->link;
// Insert at start of new list.
curNode->link = first;
first = curNode;
// Advance to next.
curNode = nxtNode;
}
}
// Code to dump the current list.
static void dumpNodes() {
struct node *curNode = first;
printf ("==========\n");
while (curNode != NULL) {
printf ("%d\n", curNode->data);
curNode = curNode->link;
}
}
// Test harness main program.
int main (void) {
int i;
struct node *newnode;
// Create list (using actually the same insert-before-first
// that is used in reverse function.
for (i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
newnode = malloc (sizeof (struct node));
newnode->data = i;
newnode->link = first;
first = newnode;
}
// Dump list, reverse it, then dump again.
dumpNodes();
reverse();
dumpNodes();
printf ("==========\n");
return 0;
}
This code outputs:
==========
4
3
2
1
0
==========
0
1
2
3
4
==========
which I think is what you were after. It can actually do this since, once you've loaded up first into the pointer traversing the list, you can re-use first at will.

Here's the code to reverse a singly linked list in C.
And here it is pasted below:
// reverse.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
typedef struct node Node;
struct node {
int data;
Node *next;
};
void spec_reverse();
Node *reverse(Node *head);
int main()
{
spec_reverse();
return 0;
}
void print(Node *head) {
while (head) {
printf("[%d]->", head->data);
head = head->next;
}
printf("NULL\n");
}
void spec_reverse() {
// Create a linked list.
// [0]->[1]->[2]->NULL
Node node2 = {2, NULL};
Node node1 = {1, &node2};
Node node0 = {0, &node1};
Node *head = &node0;
print(head);
head = reverse(head);
print(head);
assert(head == &node2);
assert(head->next == &node1);
assert(head->next->next == &node0);
printf("Passed!");
}
// Step 1:
//
// prev head next
// | | |
// v v v
// NULL [0]->[1]->[2]->NULL
//
// Step 2:
//
// prev head next
// | | |
// v v v
// NULL<-[0] [1]->[2]->NULL
//
Node *reverse(Node *head)
{
Node *prev = NULL;
Node *next;
while (head) {
next = head->next;
head->next = prev;
prev = head;
head = next;
}
return prev;
}
回答5:
Yes. I'm sure you can do this the same way you can swap two numbers without using a third. Simply cast the pointers to a int/long and perform the XOR operation a couple of times. This is one of those C tricks that makes for a fun question, but doesn't have any practical value.
Can you reduce the O(n) complexity? No, not really. Just use a doubly linked list if you think you are going to need the reverse order.

Robert Sedgewick, "Algorithms in C", Addison-Wesley, 3rd Edition, 1997, [Section 3.4]
In case that is not a cyclic list ,hence NULL is the last link.
typedef struct node* link;
struct node{
int item;
link next;
};
/* you send the existing list to reverse() and returns the reversed one */
link reverse(link x){
link t, y = x, r = NULL;
while(y != NULL){
t = y->next;
y-> next = r;
r = y;
y = t;
}
return r;
}
回答7:
Just for fun (although tail recursion optimization should stop it eating all the stack):
Node* reverse (Node *root, Node *end) {
Node *next = root->next;
root->next = end;
return (next ? reverse(next, root) : root);
}
root = reverse(root, NULL);
回答8:
To swap two variables without the use of a temporary variable,
a = a xor b
b = a xor b
a = a xor b
fastest way is to write it in one line
a = a ^ b ^ (b=a)
Similarly,
using two swaps
swap(a,b)
swap(b,c)
solution using xor
a = a^b^c
b = a^b^c
c = a^b^c
a = a^b^c
solution in one line
c = a ^ b ^ c ^ (a=b) ^ (b=c)
b = a ^ b ^ c ^ (c=a) ^ (a=b)
a = a ^ b ^ c ^ (b=c) ^ (c=a)
The same logic is used to reverse a linked list.
typedef struct List
{
int info;
struct List *next;
}List;
List* reverseList(List *head)
{
p=head;
q=p->next;
p->next=NULL;
while(q)
{
q = (List*) ((int)p ^ (int)q ^ (int)q->next ^ (int)(q->next=p) ^ (int)(p=q));
}
head = p;
return head;
}
回答9:
You need a track pointer which will track the list.
You need two pointers :
first pointer to pick first node. second pointer to pick second node.
Processing :
Move Track Pointer
Point second node to first node
Move First pointer one step, by assigning second pointer to one
Move Second pointer one step, By assigning Track pointer to second
Node* reverselist( )
{
Node *first = NULL; // To keep first node
Node *second = head; // To keep second node
Node *track = head; // Track the list
while(track!=NULL)
{
track = track->next; // track point to next node;
second->next = first; // second node point to first
first = second; // move first node to next
second = track; // move second node to next
}
track = first;
return track;
}
回答10:
How about the more readable:
Node *pop (Node **root)
{
Node *popped = *root;
if (*root) {
*root = (*root)->next;
}
return (popped);
}
void push (Node **root, Node *new_node)
{
new_node->next = *root;
*root = new_node;
}
Node *reverse (Node *root)
{
Node *new_root = NULL;
Node *next;
while ((next = pop(&root))) {
push (&new_root, next);
}
return (new_root);
}
回答11:
Here's a simpler version in Java. It does use only two pointers curr & prev
public void reverse(Node head) {
Node curr = head, prev = null;
while (head.next != null) {
head = head.next; // move the head to next node
curr.next = prev; //break the link to the next node and assign it to previous
prev = curr; // we are done with previous, move it to next node
curr = head; // current moves along with head
}
head.next = prev; //for last node
}
回答12:
I don't understand why there is need to return head as we are passing it as argument. We are passing head of the link list then we can update also. Below is simple solution.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
struct NODE
{
struct NODE *next;
int value;
};
typedef struct NODE node;
void reverse(node **head);
void add_end(node **head,int val);
void alloc(node **p);
void print_all(node *head);
void main()
{
node *head;
clrscr();
head = NULL;
add_end( &head, 1 );
add_end( &head, 2 );
add_end( &head, 3 );
print_all( head );
reverse( &head );
print_all( head );
getch();
}
void alloc(node **p)
{
node *temp;
temp = (node *) malloc( sizeof(node *) );
temp->next = NULL;
*p = temp;
}
void add_end(node **head,int val)
{
node *temp,*new_node;
alloc(&new_node);
new_node->value = val;
if( *head == NULL )
{
*head = new_node;
return;
}
for(temp = *head;temp->next!=NULL;temp=temp->next);
temp->next = new_node;
}
void print_all(node *head)
{
node *temp;
int index=0;
printf ("\n\n");
if (head == NULL)
{
printf (" List is Empty \n");
return;
}
for (temp=head; temp != NULL; temp=temp->next,index++)
printf (" %d ==> %d \n",index,temp->value);
}
void reverse(node **head)
{
node *next,*new_head;
new_head=NULL;
while(*head != NULL)

next = (*head)->next;

new_head = (*head);
(*head) = next;

Work out the time complexity of the algorithm you are using now and it should be obvious that it can not be improved.
回答15:
No, nothing faster than the current O(n) can be done. You need to alter every node, so time will be proportional to the number of elements anyway and that's O(n) you already have.
回答16:
Using two pointers while maintaining time complexity of O(n), the fastest achievable, might only be possible through number casting of pointers and swapping their values. Here is an implementation:
#include <stdio.h>
typedef struct node
{
int num;
struct node* next;
}node;
void reverse(node* head)
{
node* ptr;
if(!head || !head->next || !head->next->next) return;
ptr = head->next->next;
head->next->next = NULL;
while(ptr)
{
/* Swap head->next and ptr. */
head->next = (unsigned)(ptr =\
(unsigned)ptr ^ (unsigned)(head->next =\
(unsigned)head->next ^ (unsigned)ptr)) ^ (unsigned)head->next;
/* Swap head->next->next and ptr. */
head->next->next = (unsigned)(ptr =\
(unsigned)ptr ^ (unsigned)(head->next->next =\
(unsigned)head->next->next ^ (unsigned)ptr)) ^ (unsigned)head->next->next;
}
}
void add_end(node* ptr, int n)
{
while(ptr->next) ptr = ptr->next;
ptr->next = malloc(sizeof(node));
ptr->next->num = n;
ptr->next->next = NULL;
}
void print(node* ptr)
{
while(ptr = ptr->next) printf("%d ", ptr->num);
putchar('\n');
}
void erase(node* ptr)
{
node *end;
while(ptr->next)
{
if(ptr->next->next) ptr = ptr->next;
else
{
end = ptr->next;
ptr->next = NULL;
free(end);
}
}
}
void main()
{
int i, n = 5;
node* dummy_head;
dummy_head->next = NULL;
for(i = 1; i <= n ; ++i) add_end(dummy_head, i);
print(dummy_head);
reverse(dummy_head);
print(dummy_head);
erase(dummy_head);
}
回答17:
I have a slightly different approach. I wanted to make use of the existing functions (like insert_at(index), delete_from(index)) to reverse the list (something like a right shift operation). The complexity is still O(n) but the advantage is more reused code. Have a look at another_reverse() method and let me know what you all think.

Yes there is a way using only two pointers. That is by creating new linked list where the first node is the first node of the given list and second node of the first list is added at the start of the new list and so on.

The performance may be affected since additional function call to the add and malloc so the algorithms of address swaps are better but that one actually creates new list so you can use additional options like sort or remove items if you add a callback function as parameter to the reverse.

Here is a slightly different, but simple approach in C++11:
#include <iostream>
struct Node{
Node(): next(NULL){}
Node *next;
std::string data;
};
void printlist(Node* l){
while(l){
std::cout<<l->data<<std::endl;
l = l->next;
}
std::cout<<"----"<<std::endl;
}
void reverse(Node*& l)
{
Node* prev = NULL;
while(l){
auto next = l->next;
l->next = prev;
prev=l;
l=next;
}
l = prev;
}
int main() {
Node s,t,u,v;
s.data = "1";
t.data = "2";
u.data = "3";
v.data = "4";
s.next = &t;
t.next = &u;
u.next = &v;
Node* ptr = &s;
printlist(ptr);
reverse(ptr);
printlist(ptr);
return 0;
}
Output here

Following is one implementation using 2 pointers (head and r)
ListNode * reverse(ListNode* head) {
ListNode *r = NULL;
if(head) {
r = head->next;
head->next = NULL;
}
while(r) {
head = reinterpret_cast<ListNode*>(size_t(head) ^ size_t(r->next));
r->next = reinterpret_cast<ListNode*>(size_t(r->next) ^ size_t(head));
head = reinterpret_cast<ListNode*>(size_t(head) ^ size_t(r->next));
head = reinterpret_cast<ListNode*>(size_t(head) ^ size_t(r));
r = reinterpret_cast<ListNode*>(size_t(r) ^ size_t(head));
head = reinterpret_cast<ListNode*>(size_t(head) ^ size_t(r));
}
return head;
}
回答26:
here is a little simple solution...
void reverse()
{
node * pointer1 = head->next;
if(pointer1 != NULL)
{
node *pointer2 = pointer1->next;
pointer1->next = head;
head->next = NULL;
head = pointer1;
if(pointer2 != NULL)
{
while(pointer2 != NULL)
{
pointer1 = pointer2;
pointer2 = pointer2->next;
pointer1->next = head;
head = pointer1;
}
pointer1->next = head;
head = pointer1;
}
}
}
回答27:
You can have solution of this problem with help of only one extra pointer, that has to be static for the reverse function. It's in O(n) complexity.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
typedef struct List* List;
struct List {
int val;
List next;
};
List reverse(List list) { /* with recursion and one static variable*/
static List tail;
if(!list || !list->next) {
tail = list;
return tail;
} else {
reverse1(list->next);
list->next->next = list;
list->next = NULL;
return tail;
}
}
回答28:
As an alternative, you can use recursion-
struct node* reverseList(struct node *head)
{
if(head == NULL) return NULL;
if(head->next == NULL) return head;
struct node* second = head->next;
head->next = NULL;
struct node* remaining = reverseList(second);
second->next = head;
return remaining;
}
回答29:
curr = head;
prev = NULL;
while (curr != NULL) {
next = curr->next; // store current's next, since it will be overwritten
curr->next = prev;
prev = curr;
curr = next;
}
head = prev; // update head

class Node {
Node next;
int data;
Node(int item) {
data = item;
next = null;

//Print LinkedList
public static void printList(Node node){

//Creating LinkedList
LinkedList.head = new Node(1);
LinkedList.head.next = new Node(2);
LinkedList.head.next.next = new Node(3);
LinkedList.head.next.next.next = new Node(4);
LinkedList.printList(LinkedList.head);
Node node = LinkedList.reverse(LinkedList.head);
LinkedList.printList(node);
}
}
