Given the head
of a linked list, return the list after sorting it in ascending order.
Follow up: Can you sort the linked list in O(n logn)
time and O(1)
memory (i.e. constant space)?
Example 1:
Input: head = [4,2,1,3] Output: [1,2,3,4]
Example 2:
Input: head = [-1,5,3,4,0] Output: [-1,0,3,4,5]
Example 3:
Input: head = [] Output: []
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the list is in the range
[0, 5 * 104]
. -105 <= Node.val <= 105
# Definition for singly-linked list.
# class ListNode:
# def __init__(self, val=0, next=None):
# self.val = val
# self.next = next
class Solution:
def sortList(self, head: ListNode) -> ListNode:
if head is None or head.next is None:
return head
slow, fast = head, head.next

slow, fast = slow.next, fast.next.next

slow.next = None
