Leetcode - 002 - Add Two Numbers

2. Add Two Numbers

• Medium

You are given two non-empty linked lists representing two non-negative integers. The digits are stored in reverse order, and each of their nodes contains a single digit. Add the two numbers and return the sum as a linked list.

You may assume the two numbers do not contain any leading zero, except the number 0 itself.

Example 1:
Input: l1 = [2,4,3], l2 = [5,6,4]
Output: [7,0,8]
Explanation: 342 + 465 = 807.

Example 2:
Input: l1 = [0], l2 = [0]
Output: [0]

Example 3:
Input: l1 = [9,9,9,9,9,9,9], l2 = [9,9,9,9]
Output: [8,9,9,9,0,0,0,1]

Constraints:
    The number of nodes in each linked list is in the range [1, 100].
    0 <= Node.val <= 9
    It is guaranteed that the list represents a number that does not have leading zeros.

Solution

1. Create a ListNode to store the additive results and an integer variable i to store the carry
2. Traverse the ListNodes, additive for each node
3. If the result of the node > 10, a number greater than a single digit is put into i
4. When the ListNode to be added is empty (the accumulation is complete) and the i = 0 (no carry), return the result ListNode
