2130. Maximum Twin Sum of a Linked List

Medium

In a linked list of size n, where n is even, the ith node (0-indexed) of the linked list is known as the twin of the (n-1-i)th node, if 0 <= i <= (n / 2) - 1.

  • For example, if n = 4, then node 0 is the twin of node 3, and node 1 is the twin of node 2. These are the only nodes with twins for n = 4.

The twin sum is defined as the sum of a node and its twin.

Given the head of a linked list with even length, return the maximum twin sum of the linked list.

Example 1:

Input: head = [5,4,2,1]
Output:
 6
Explanation:
Nodes 0 and 1 are the twins of nodes 3 and 2, respectively. All have twin sum = 6.
There are no other nodes with twins in the linked list.
Thus, the maximum twin sum of the linked list is 6. 

Example 2:

Input: head = [4,2,2,3]
Output:
 7
Explanation:
The nodes with twins present in this linked list are:
- Node 0 is the twin of node 3 having a twin sum of 4 + 3 = 7.
- Node 1 is the twin of node 2 having a twin sum of 2 + 2 = 4.
Thus, the maximum twin sum of the linked list is max(7, 4) = 7. 

Example 3:

Input: head = [1,100000]
Output:
 100001
Explanation:
There is only one node with a twin in the linked list having twin sum of 1 + 100000 = 100001.

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the list is an even integer in the range [2, 105].

  • 1 <= Node.val <= 105

解題

把數值都存進陣列後暴力解。

/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * type ListNode struct {
 *     Val int
 *     Next *ListNode
 * }
 */
func pairSum(head *ListNode) int {
    arr := make([]int, 0)

    for head != nil {
        arr = append(arr, head.Val)
        head = head.Next
    }

    ans := 0
    for i:=0; i < len(arr) / 2 ; i++ {
        if arr[i] + arr[len(arr) - 1 - i] > ans {
            ans = arr[i] + arr[len(arr) - 1 - i]
        }
    }

    return ans
}
