# Add Two Numbers

{% embed url="<https://leetcode.com/problems/add-two-numbers/>" %}

## Solution 1 (Go)

```go
/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * type ListNode struct {
 *     Val int
 *     Next *ListNode
 * }
 */
func addTwoNumbers(l1 *ListNode, l2 *ListNode) *ListNode {
    head := &ListNode{Val: 0}   // dummy node
    val1, val2, carry, runner := 0, 0, 0, head
    for l1 != nil || l2 != nil || carry == 1 {
        if l1 == nil {
            val1 = 0
        } else {
            val1 = l1.Val
            l1 = l1.Next
        }
        if l2 == nil {
            val2 = 0
        } else {
            val2 = l2.Val
            l2 = l2.Next
        }
        runner.Next = &ListNode{Val: (val1 + val2 + carry) % 10}
        carry = (val1 + val2 + carry) / 10
        runner = runner.Next
    }
    return head.Next
}
```

## Solution 2 (Java)

```java
/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * public class ListNode {
 *     int val;
 *     ListNode next;
 *     ListNode() {}
 *     ListNode(int val) { this.val = val; }
 *     ListNode(int val, ListNode next) { this.val = val; this.next = next; }
 * }
 */
class Solution {
    public ListNode addTwoNumbers(ListNode l1, ListNode l2) {
        ListNode dummy = new ListNode(0);
        ListNode head = dummy;
        int carry = 0;
        while (l1 != null && l2 != null) {
            int val = (l1.val + l2.val + carry) % 10;
            carry = (l1.val + l2.val + carry) / 10;
            ListNode newNode = new ListNode(val);
            head.next = newNode;
            head = newNode;
            l1 = l1.next;
            l2 = l2.next;
        }
        while (l1 == null && l2 != null)  {
            int val = (l2.val + carry) % 10;
            carry = (l2.val + carry) / 10;
            ListNode newNode = new ListNode(val);
            head.next = newNode;
            head = newNode;
            l2 = l2.next;
        }
        while (l2 == null && l1 != null)  {
            int val = (l1.val + carry) % 10;
            carry = (l1.val + carry) / 10;
            ListNode newNode = new ListNode(val);
            head.next = newNode;
            head = newNode;
            l1 = l1.next;
        }
        if (carry == 1) head.next = new ListNode(1);
        return dummy.next;
    }
}

//     9 -> 9 -> 9 -> 9
//     9 -> 9
//     8 -> 9 -> 0 -> 0 -> 1
```

## Solution 3 (Java)

```java
/**
 * Definition for singly-linked list.
 * public class ListNode {
 *     int val;
 *     ListNode next;
 *     ListNode() {}
 *     ListNode(int val) { this.val = val; }
 *     ListNode(int val, ListNode next) { this.val = val; this.next = next; }
 * }
 */
class Solution {
    public ListNode addTwoNumbers(ListNode l1, ListNode l2) {
        ListNode dummy = new ListNode(0);
        ListNode curr = dummy;
        int carry = 0;
        while (l1 != null || l2 != null || carry != 0) {
            int x = (l1 != null) ? l1.val : 0;
            int y = (l2 != null) ? l2.val : 0;
            int sum = x + y + carry;
            carry = sum / 10;
            curr.next = new ListNode(sum % 10);
            curr = curr.next;
            if (l1 != null) l1 = l1.next;
            if (l2 != null) l2 = l2.next;
        }
        return dummy.next;
    }
}

// 1111111
//  9999999
//     9999
// 10009998

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://blog.yushunchen.com/algo/linked-list/add-two-numbers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
