Data Structure Linked list Question:
Explain reverse a linked list recursive Java solution?
Answer:
public void recursiveReverse(Node currentNode )
{
//check for empty list
if(currentNode == NULL)
return;
/* if we are at the TAIL node:
recursive base case:
*/
if(currentNode.next == NULL)
{
//set HEAD to current TAIL since we are reversing list
head = currentNode;
return; //since this is the base case
}
recursiveReverse(currentNode.next);
currentNode.next.next = currentNode;
currentNode.next = null; //set "old" next pointer to NULL
}
{
//check for empty list
if(currentNode == NULL)
return;
/* if we are at the TAIL node:
recursive base case:
*/
if(currentNode.next == NULL)
{
//set HEAD to current TAIL since we are reversing list
head = currentNode;
return; //since this is the base case
}
recursiveReverse(currentNode.next);
currentNode.next.next = currentNode;
currentNode.next = null; //set "old" next pointer to NULL
}
