21. Merge Two Sorted Lists(Java)

Merge two sorted linked lists and return it as a new list. The new list should be made by splicing together the nodes of the first two lists.

public class Solution {
public ListNode mergeTwoLists(ListNode l1, ListNode l2) {
if (l1 == null) return l2;
if (l2 == null) return l1;

if (l1.val <= l2.val) {
l1.next = mergeTwoLists(l1.next, l2);
return l1;
} else {
l2.next = mergeTwoLists(l2.next, l1);
return l2;
}
}
}
