Delete Node in a Linked List #LeetCode

Problem Reference:
https://leetcode.com/problems/delete-node-in-a-linked-list/

Problem Statement:
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:

/** * Definition for singly-linked list. * struct ListNode { * int val; * ListNode *next; * ListNode(int x) : val(x), next(NULL) {} * }; */ class Solution { public: void deleteNode(ListNode* node) { ListNode* next = node->next; node->val = next->val; node->next = next->next; } };
