Remove Linked List Elements on LeetCode with Java

🚀 Day 18 of #100DaysOfCode Solved Remove Duplicates from Sorted List II on LeetCode 🔗 🧠 Key insight: When duplicates appear in a sorted linked list, we need to remove all occurrences, not just one. Using a dummy (sentinel) node makes it easier to handle cases where duplicates start at the head. ⚙️ Approach: 🔹Create a dummy node pointing to the head 🔹Traverse the list with two pointers 🔹If a duplicate sequence is found, skip the entire block 🔹Otherwise, move forward normally ⏱️ Time Complexity: O(n) 📦 Space Complexity: O(1) #100DaysOfCode #LeetCode #DSA #LinkedList #Java #ProblemSolving #LearningInPublic #CodingJourney

🚀 Day 14 of #100DaysOfCode Solved Merge Two Sorted Lists on LeetCode 🔗🔀 🧠 Key insight: Using a dummy (sentinel) node simplifies pointer handling and avoids edge cases when building the merged list. ⚙️ Approach: 🔹Initialize a dummy node to act as the start of the merged list 🔹Compare nodes from both lists one by one 🔹Attach the smaller node and move the pointer forward 🔹Append remaining nodes once one list is exhausted ⏱️ Time Complexity: O(n + m) 📦 Space Complexity: O(1) #100DaysOfCode #LeetCode #DSA #LinkedList #Java #ProblemSolving #LearningInPublic #CodingJourney

🚀 Day 15 of #100DaysOfCode Solved Reverse Linked List on LeetCode 🔄🔗 🧠 Key insight: Reversing a linked list is all about careful pointer manipulation. By tracking prev, current, and next, we can reverse links in-place without extra memory. ⚙️ Approach: 🔹Initialize prev = null, current = head 🔹Store next node before breaking the link 🔹Reverse current.next to point to prev 🔹Move pointers forward until the list ends ⏱️ Time Complexity: O(n) 📦 Space Complexity: O(1) #100DaysOfCode #LeetCode #DSA #LinkedList #Java #ProblemSolving #LearningInPublic #CodingJourney

🚀 Day 99 of #100DaysOfLeetCode 📌 Problem: 67. Add Binary 📊 Difficulty: Easy 💡 Key Insight: Binary addition follows the same rules as decimal addition — add digits from right to left while maintaining a carry. The only difference is everything is in base 2. 🛠️ Approach: Use two pointers starting from the end of both strings Add corresponding bits along with a carry Append the result bit (sum % 2) Update carry (sum / 2) Reverse the final string to get the answer ⏱️ Complexity: Time: O(n) Space: O(n) #LeetCode #Java #ProblemSolving #CodingChallenge #100DaysOfCode #DSA #LearningEveryday

🚀 Day 25 of #100DaysOfCode Solved 24. Swap Nodes in Pairs on LeetCode 🔗🔄 🧠 Key insight: Swapping nodes in a linked list doesn’t require extra memory—careful pointer updates are enough to reverse every adjacent pair. ⚙️ Approach: 🔹Traverse the list two nodes at a time 🔹Reverse links between each adjacent pair 🔹Maintain connections with the previous pair to keep the list intact 🔹Handle edge cases for odd-length lists ⏱️ Time Complexity: O(n) 📦 Space Complexity: O(1) #100DaysOfCode #LeetCode #DSA #LinkedList #Java #ProblemSolving #LearningInPublic #CodingJourney

Solved "Container With Most Water" on LeetCode today using the Two-Pointer Technique. 🚀 The key insight is that the area formed by two lines depends on the shorter height and the distance between them. Starting with pointers at both ends of the array, we compute the area and move the pointer at the smaller height inward to potentially find a taller boundary and maximize the area. This approach efficiently reduces the problem from O(n²) brute force to O(n) time with O(1) space. Problems like this are a great reminder that the right observation can drastically optimize a solution. 💡 #LeetCode #DSA #TwoPointers #Java #ProblemSolving

LeetCode Problem || Check if Binary String Has at Most One Segment of Ones(1784)🚀 we need to check: The string should have only one continuous block of '1's. After a '0' appears, '1' should never appear again. ✨ Insight: Instead of manually counting segments using loops, we can simply check if "01" exists in the string. 📌 Time Complexity: O(n) Practicing problems like these helps improve pattern recognition and problem-solving efficiency. #LeetCode #DSA #Java #CodingPractice #ProblemSolving

🚀 Day 19 of #100DaysOfCode Solved 2. Add Two Numbers on LeetCode ➕🔗 (in-place linked list approach) 🧠 Key insight: Instead of creating a new list, we can reuse the longer linked list and perform addition in place, handling carry carefully across nodes. ⚙️ Approach: 🔹Calculate the size of both linked lists 🔹Use the longer list as the result list 🔹Traverse both lists, adding values with carry 🔹Continue processing remaining nodes of the longer list 🔹Append a new node if a carry remains at the end ⏱️ Time Complexity: O(max(n, m)) 📦 Space Complexity: O(1) (no extra list created) #100DaysOfCode #LeetCode #DSA #LinkedList #Java #ProblemSolving #LearningInPublic #CodingJourney

🚀 Day 20/180 | #180DaysOfCode 📍 LeetCode | 💻 Java Solved: 350. Intersection of Two Arrays II Used sorting + two-pointer technique to efficiently find common elements appearing in both arrays while maintaining correct frequency. ⏱️ Time Complexity: O(n log n + m log m) 📦 Space Complexity: O(min(n, m)) (for storing the intersection) Strengthening understanding of array traversal and two-pointer pattern through consistent practice. 💪 Consistency keeps the progress moving 🚀 #DSA #LeetCode #Java #CodingJourney #Consistency
