LeetCode-23 合并 K 个升序链表

LeetCode-23 合并 K 个升序链表

给你一个链表数组，每个链表都已经按升序排列。

请你将所有链表合并到一个升序链表中，返回合并后的链表。

示例 1：

输入：lists = [[1,4,5],[1,3,4],[2,6]]
输出：[1,1,2,3,4,4,5,6]
解释：链表数组如下：
[
  1->4->5,
  1->3->4,
  2->6
]
将它们合并到一个有序链表中得到。
1->1->2->3->4->4->5->6

示例 2：

输入：lists = []
输出：[]

示例 3：

输入：lists = [[]]
输出：[]

提示：

• k == lists.length
• 0 <= k <= 10^4
• 0 <= lists[i].length <= 500
• -10^4 <= lists[i][j] <= 10^4
• lists[i] 按 升序 排列
• lists[i].length 的总和不超过 10^4

solution

采用分治法，

1. 从pre_vec合并两个相邻的链表，并将结果放入vec中
2. pre_vec=vec,vec.clear()
3. 循环上述操作，直至pre_vec的长度为1
4. 输出pre_vec[0]

    ListNode() : val(0), next(nullptr) {}

    ListNode(int x) : val(x), next(nullptr) {}

    ListNode(int x, ListNode *next) : val(x), next(next) {}
