Delete the Middle Node of a Linked List

 Problem link:  https://leetcode.com/problems/delete-the-middle-node-of-a-linked-list/

You are given the head of a linked list. Delete the middle node, and return the head of the modified linked list.

The middle node of a linked list of size n is the ⌊n / 2⌋th node from the start using 0-based indexing, where ⌊x⌋ denotes the largest integer less than or equal to x.

  • For n = 1234, and 5, the middle nodes are 0112, and 2, respectively.

 

Example 1:

Input: head = [1,3,4,7,1,2,6]
Output: [1,3,4,1,2,6]
Explanation:
The above figure represents the given linked list. The indices of the nodes are written below.
Since n = 7, node 3 with value 7 is the middle node, which is marked in red.
We return the new list after removing this node. 

Example 2:

Input: head = [1,2,3,4]
Output: [1,2,4]
Explanation:
The above figure represents the given linked list.
For n = 4, node 2 with value 3 is the middle node, which is marked in red.

Example 3:

Input: head = [2,1]
Output: [2]
Explanation:
The above figure represents the given linked list.
For n = 2, node 1 with value 1 is the middle node, which is marked in red.
Node 0 with value 2 is the only node remaining after removing node 1.

 

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the list is in the range [1, 105].
  • 1 <= Node.val <= 105
Solution (C#):

Vikash Chauhan

C# & .NET experienced Software Engineer with a demonstrated history of working in the computer software industry.
