Problem

Given a linked list, rotate the list to the right by k places, where k is non-negative.

Example 1:

Input: 1->2->3->4->5->NULL, k = 2
Output: 4->5->1->2->3->NULL
Explanation:
rotate 1 steps to the right: 5->1->2->3->4->NULL
rotate 2 steps to the right: 4->5->1->2->3->NULL

Example 2:

Input: 0->1->2->NULL, k = 4
Output: 2->0->1->NULL
Explanation:
rotate 1 steps to the right: 2->0->1->NULL
rotate 2 steps to the right: 1->2->0->NULL
rotate 3 steps to the right: 0->1->2->NULL
rotate 4 steps to the right: 2->0->1->NULL

Solution

/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * function ListNode(val) {
 *     this.val = val;
 *     this.next = null;
 * }
 */
/**
 * @param {ListNode} head
 * @param {number} k
 * @return {ListNode}
 */
var rotateRight = function(head, k) {
    var count = 1;
    var last = head;
    var now = head;

    if (!head || !head.next) return head;

    while (last.next) {
        last = last.next;
        count++;
    }

    k %= count;

    if (k === 0) return head;

    while (k < count - 1) {
        now = now.next;
        k++;
    }

    last.next = head;
    head = now.next;
    now.next = null;

    return head;
};

Explain:

  1. 拿到长度 count 和最后一个 last
  2. k %= count
  3. 找到新的最后一个 newLast,last.next = head,head = newLast.next,newLast.next = null
  4. return head
