Delete Node in a Linked List

Write a function to delete a node (except the tail) in a singly linked list, given only access to that node.

Supposed the linked list is 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 and you are given the third node with value 3, the linked list should become 1 -> 2 -> 4 after calling your function.

Solution:

  1. /**
  2.  * Definition for singly-linked list.
  3.  * public class ListNode {
  4.  *     int val;
  5.  *     ListNode next;
  6.  *     ListNode(int x) { val = x; }
  7.  * }
  8.  */
  9. public class Solution {
  10.   public void deleteNode(ListNode node) {
  11.     node.val = node.next.val;
  12.     node.next = node.next.next;
  13.   }
  14. }
