86. Partition List

86. Partition List

Given the head of a linked list and a value x, partition it such that all nodes less than x come before nodes greater than or equal to x.

You should preserve the original relative order of the nodes in each of the two partitions.

Example 1:

Input: head = [1,4,3,2,5,2], x = 3
Output: [1,2,2,4,3,5]

Example 2:

Input: head = [2,1], x = 2
Output: [1,2]

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the list is in the range [0, 200].
  • -100 <= Node.val <= 100
  • -200 <= x <= 200

 

# Definition for singly-linked list.
# class ListNode:
#     def __init__(self, val=0, next=None):
#         self.val = val
#         self.next = next
class Solution:
    def partition(self, head: Optional[ListNode], x: int) -> Optional[ListNode]:
        h1 = l1 = ListNode(0)
        h2 = l2 = ListNode(0)

 

        while head:
            if head.val < x:
                l1.next =head
                l1 = l1.next
            else:
                l2.next = head
                l2 = l2.next

 

            head = head.next

 

        l2.next = None
        l1.next = h2.next

 

        return h1.next
