| 7 | +## Problem |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +You are given the `head` of a linked list, which contains a series of integers **separated** by `0`'s. The **beginning** and **end** of the linked list will have `Node.val == 0`. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +For **every **two consecutive `0`'s, **merge** all the nodes lying in between them into a single node whose value is the **sum** of all the merged nodes. The modified list should not contain any `0`'s. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +Return **the** `head` **of the modified linked list**. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Example 1: |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +``` |
| 21 | +Input: head = [0,3,1,0,4,5,2,0] |
| 22 | +Output: [4,11] |
| 23 | +Explanation: |
| 24 | +The above figure represents the given linked list. The modified list contains |
| 25 | +- The sum of the nodes marked in green: 3 + 1 = 4. |
| 26 | +- The sum of the nodes marked in red: 4 + 5 + 2 = 11. |
| 27 | +``` |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +Example 2: |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +``` |
| 34 | +Input: head = [0,1,0,3,0,2,2,0] |
| 35 | +Output: [1,3,4] |
| 36 | +Explanation: |
| 37 | +The above figure represents the given linked list. The modified list contains |
| 38 | +- The sum of the nodes marked in green: 1 = 1. |
| 39 | +- The sum of the nodes marked in red: 3 = 3. |
| 40 | +- The sum of the nodes marked in yellow: 2 + 2 = 4. |
| 41 | +``` |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +**Constraints:** |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +- The number of nodes in the list is in the range `[3, 2 * 105]`. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +- `0 <= Node.val <= 1000` |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +- There are **no** two consecutive nodes with `Node.val == 0`. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +- The **beginning** and **end** of the linked list have `Node.val == 0`. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +## Solution |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +```javascript |
| 61 | +/** |
| 62 | + * Definition for singly-linked list. |
| 63 | + * function ListNode(val, next) { |
| 64 | + * this.val = (val===undefined ? 0 : val) |
| 65 | + * this.next = (next===undefined ? null : next) |
| 66 | + * } |
| 67 | + */ |
| 68 | +/** |
| 69 | + * @param {ListNode} head |
| 70 | + * @return {ListNode} |
| 71 | + */ |
| 72 | +var mergeNodes = function(head) { |
| 73 | + var newHead = new ListNode(); |
| 74 | + var resNow = newHead; |
| 75 | + var now = head; |
| 76 | + while (now) { |
| 77 | + if (now.val === 0 && now.next) { |
| 78 | + resNow.next = new ListNode(); |
| 79 | + resNow = resNow.next; |
| 80 | + } else if (now.val !== 0) { |
| 81 | + resNow.val += now.val; |
| 82 | + } |
| 83 | + now = now.next; |
| 84 | + } |
| 85 | + return newHead.next; |
| 86 | +}; |
| 87 | +``` |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +**Explain:** |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +nope. |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +**Complexity:** |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +* Time complexity : O(n). |
| 96 | +* Space complexity : O(n). |
