Linked List Product of Nodes Between 0s

Given a linked list that contains a series of numbers separated by “0”. Multiply them and store them in the linked list in place.

Note: There will not be continuous zeros in the input.

Examples:  

Input  : 1->2->3->0->5->4->0->3->2->0
Output : 6->20->6

Input  : 1->2->3->4
Output : 1->2->3->4 

Approach

  1. Start iterating over nodes of the linked list.
  2. Iterate while temp.data !=0, and multiply these data into a variable ‘prod’.
  3. When you encounter 0 as the node’s data, change pointers of previous nodes.

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++




// C++ program to in-place product linked list
// nodes between 0s
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Linked List Node
struct Node
{
    int data;
    Node* next;
    Node(int d)
    {
        data = d;
        next = NULL;
    }
};
 
// Function to traverse and print Linked List
    void printList(Node* head)
    {
        while (head->next != NULL)
        {
            cout<<head->data <<"-> ";
                head = head->next;
        }
        cout << head->data << "\n";
    }
 
// Function to in-place product linked list
// nodes between 0s
 
    // Function to store numbers till 0
    void inPlaceStore(Node* head)
    {
        if (head->data == 0)
        {
            head = head->next;
        }
 
        // To store modified list
        Node* res = head;
 
        // Traverse linked list and keep
        // adding nodes between 0s.
        Node* temp = head;
        int prod = 1;
        while (temp != NULL)
        {
 
            // loop to product the data of nodes till
            // it encounters 0
            if (temp->data != 0)
            {
                prod *= temp->data;
                temp = temp->next;
            }
 
            // If we encounters 0, we need
            // to update next pointers
            else
            {
                 
                res->data = prod;
                res->next = temp->next;
                temp = temp->next;
                res = res->next;
                prod = 1;
            }
        }
         
        // For the last segment
        res->data = prod;
        res->next = temp;
                 
        printList(head);
    }
 
    // Driver Code
    int main()
    {
        Node *head = new Node(3);
        head->next = new Node(2);
        head->next->next = new Node(0);
        head->next->next->next = new Node(4);
        head->next->next->next->next = new Node(5);
        head->next->next->next->next->next = new Node(0);
        head->next->next->next->next->next->next = new Node(6);
        head->next->next->next->next->next->next->next = new Node(7);
        inPlaceStore(head);
        return 0;
    }
