Number is represented in linked list such that each digit corresponds to a node in linked list. Add 1 to it. For example 1999 is represented as (1-> 9-> 9 -> 9) and adding 1 to it should change it to (2->0->0->0) 

Below are the steps : 

  1. Reverse given linked list. For example, 1-> 9-> 9 -> 9 is converted to 9-> 9 -> 9 ->1.
  2. Start traversing linked list from leftmost node and add 1 to it. If there is a carry, move to the next node. Keep moving to the next node while there is a carry.
  3. Reverse modified linked list and return head.
 

Below is the implementation of above steps. 

C++




// C++ program to add 1 to a linked list
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
/* Linked list node */
class Node
{
    public:
    int data;
    Node* next;
};
 
/* Function to create a new node with given data */
Node *newNode(int data)
{
    Node *new_node = new Node;
    new_node->data = data;
    new_node->next = NULL;
    return new_node;
}
 
/* Function to reverse the linked list */
Node *reverse(Node *head)
{
    Node * prev = NULL;
    Node * current = head;
    Node * next;
    while (current != NULL)
    {
        next = current->next;
        current->next = prev;
        prev = current;
        current = next;
    }
    return prev;
}
 
/* Adds one to a linked lists and return the head
node of resultant list */
Node *addOneUtil(Node *head)
{
    // res is head node of the resultant list
    Node* res = head;
    Node *temp;
 
    int carry = 1, sum;
 
    while (head != NULL) //while both lists exist
    {
        // Calculate value of next digit in resultant list.
        // The next digit is sum of following things
        // (i) Carry
        // (ii) Next digit of head list (if there is a
        // next digit)
        sum = carry + head->data;
 
        // update carry for next calculation
        carry = (sum >= 10)? 1 : 0;
 
        // update sum if it is greater than 10
        sum = sum % 10;
 
        // Create a new node with sum as data
        head->data = sum;
 
        // Move head and second pointers to next nodes
        temp = head;
        head = head->next;
    }
 
    // if some carry is still there, add a new node to
    // result list.
    if (carry > 0)
        temp->next = newNode(carry);
 
    // return head of the resultant list
    return res;
}
 
// This function mainly uses addOneUtil().
Node* addOne(Node *head)
{
    // Reverse linked list

{

Output

List is 1999

Resultant list is 2000

Time Complexity: O(n), Here n is the number of nodes in the linked list.
Auxiliary Space: O(1), As constant extra space is used.

Recursive Implementation: 
We can recursively reach the last node and forward carry to previous nodes. Recursive solution doesn’t require reversing of linked list. We can also use a stack in place of recursion to temporarily hold nodes.

Below is the implementation of recursive solution.

Output

List is 1999

Resultant list is 2000

Time Complexity: O(n), Here n is the number of nodes in the linked list.
Auxiliary Space: O(n),The extra space is used in recursion call stack.

Simple approach and easy implementation: The idea is to store the last non 9 digit pointer so that if the last pointer is zero we can replace all the nodes after stored node(which contains the location of last digit before 9) to 0 and add the value of the stored node by 1

Output

List is 1999

Resultant list is 2000

Time Complexity: O(n), Here n is the number of nodes in the linked list.
Auxiliary Space: O(1), As constant extra space is used.

The easy way to add 1 in number represented by linked list.

The Approach:

    we first traverse over lined list and get the number that there in linked list simple while loop code and then add one to that number and then convert that number to linked list by simple while loop of(%10 and /10).

 Time Complexity: O(n), Here n is the number of nodes in the linked list.
Auxiliary Space: O(n), Need one temporary linked list to store result.
