How to Find the Length of a Linked List - The Coding Shala

Home >> Data Structures >> Find the Length of a Linked List

 In this post, we will learn how to find the length of a given linked list in Java.

How to Find the Length of a Linked List

You have given a singly linked list, write a Java program to count the number of elements or length of the linked list.

Example 1:
LinkedList: 1->2->3->4->5
Output: 5

Example 2:
LinkedList: 2->4->6->7->5->1->0
Output: 7

Approach 1

Traverse the linked list until you reached the null node.

Java Program: 

/*
class Node{
    int data;
    Node next;
    Node(int a){  
        data = a; 
        next = null; 
    }
}*/

class Solution
{
    public static int getCount(Node head)
    {
        int count = 0;
        Node curr = head;
        while (curr != null) {
            count++;
            curr = curr.next;
        }
        
        return count;
    }
}

Goal Parser Interpretation LeetCode Solution - The Coding Shala

Home >> LeetCode >> Goal Parser Interpretation  In this post, we will learn how to solve LeetCode's Goal Parser Interpretation Problem and will implement its solution in Java. Goal Parser Interpretation Problem You own a Goal Parser that can interpret a string command. The command consists of an alphabet of "G", "()", and/or "(al)" in some order. The Goal Parser will interpret "G" as the string "G", "()" as the string "o", and "(al)" as the string "al". The interpreted strings are then concatenated in the original order. Given the string command, return the Goal Parser's interpretation of the command. Example 1: Input: command = "G()(al)" Output: "Goal" Explanation: The Goal Parser interprets the command as follows: G -> G () -> o (al) -> al The final concatenated result is "Goal". Example 2: Input: command = "G()()()()(al)&qu

Check If N and Its Double Exist in an array - The Coding Shala

Home >> Programming Questions >> N and its double Check if N and its Double Exist in an array In this post, we will learn how to check if N and its double exist in an array and will implement its solution in Java. Given an array arr of integers, check if there exist two integers N and M such that N is the double of M ( i.e. N = 2 * M). More formally check if there exists two indices i and j such that: i != jk 0 <= i, j < arr.length arr[i] == 2 * arr[j] Example 1: Input: arr = [10,2,5,3] Output: true Explanation: N = 10 is the double of M = 5,that is, 10 = 2 * 5. Example 2: Input: arr = [7,1,14,11] Output: true Explanation: N = 14 is the double of M = 7,that is, 14 = 2 * 7. Example 3: Input: arr = [3,1,7,11] Output: false Explanation: In this case does not exist N and M, such that N = 2 * M. Check N and its double exist Solution Approach: We can check this using HashSet. Check every number's double and if its divisible by two then check its half in the set.
