Given a singly Linked List L consisting of N nodes and an integer K, the task is to modify the value of each node of the given Linked List to its nearest multiple of K, not exceeding the value of the node.

Examples:

Input: LL: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 5, K = 2 
Output: 0 -> 2 -> 2 -> 4
Explanation:
The resultant LL has values having less than the original LL value and is a multiple of K(= 2).

Input: LL:13 -> 14 -> 26 -> 29 -> 40, K = 13
Output: 13 -> 13 -> 26 -> 26 -> 39

Approach: The given problem can be solved by traversing the given Linked List and for each node traversed, find the floor value, say val, of the node value divided by K and update the node values to val*K.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
 
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
// Structure of node
struct node {
    int data;
    node* next;
};
 
// Function to replace the node N
// by the nearest multiple of K
node* EvalNearestMult(node* N, int K)
{
    node* temp = N;
    int t;
 
    // Traverse the Linked List
    while (N != NULL) {
 
        // If data is less than K
        if (N->data < K)
            N->data = 0;
 
        else {
 
            // If the data of current
            // node is same as K
            if (N->data == K)
                N->data = K;
 
            // Otherwise change the value
            else {
                N->data = (N->data / K) * K;
            }
        }
 
        // Move to the next node
        N = N->next;
    }
 
    // Return the updated LL
    return temp;
}
 
// Function to print the nodes of
// the Linked List
void printList(node* N)
{
    // Traverse the LL
    while (N != NULL) {
 
        // Print the node's data
        cout << N->data << "  ";
        N = N->next;
    }
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given Linked List
    node* head = NULL;
    node* second = NULL;
    node* third = NULL;
 
    head = new node();
    second = new node();
    third = new node();
 
    head->data = 3;
    head->next = second;
    second->data = 4;
    second->next = third;
    third->data = 8;
    third->next = NULL;
 
    node* t = EvalNearestMult(head, 3);
 
    printList(t);
 
    return 0;
}
