Question

Given head which is a reference node to a singly-linked list. The value of each node in the linked list is either 0 or 1. The linked list holds the binary representation of a number.

Return the decimal value of the number in the linked list.

The most significant bit is at the head of the linked list.

Example 1:

graph 1
Input: head = [1,0,1]
Output: 5
Explanation: (101) in base 2 = (5) in base 10

Example 2:

Input: head = [0]
Output: 0

Constraints:

  • The Linked List is not empty.
  • Number of nodes will not exceed 30.
  • Each node’s value is either 0 or 1.

Python Solution

# Definition for singly-linked list.
# class ListNode:
#     def __init__(self, val=0, next=None):
#         self.val = val
#         self.next = next
class Solution:
    def getDecimalValue(self, head: ListNode) -> int:
        res=''
        while head.next!=None:
            res+=str(head.val)
            head=head.next
        res+=str(head.val)
        res=res[::-1]
        s=0
        for i in range(len(res)):
            s+=int(res[i])*(2**i)
        return s
