Merging two sorted linked lists

Question

This is one of the programming questions asked during written test from Microsoft. I am giving the question and the answer that I came up with. Thing is my answer although l

Answer 1

Use recursion. The code is as follows:

ListNode* mergeTwoSortedLists(ListNode* pHead1, ListNode* pHead2)
{
    if(pHead1 == NULL)
        return pHead2;
    else if(pHead2 == NULL)
        return pHead1;

    ListNode* pMergedHead = NULL;

    if(pHead1->m_nValue < pHead2->m_nValue)
    {
        pMergedHead = pHead1;
        pMergedHead->m_pNext = mergeTwoSortedLists(pHead1->m_pNext, pHead2);
    }
    else
    {
        pMergedHead = pHead2;
        pMergedHead->m_pNext = mergeTwoSortedLists(pHead1, pHead2->m_pNext);
    }

    return pMergedHead;
}
