题目:
Given a string s and a string t, check if s is subsequence of t.
You may assume that there is only lower case English letters in both s and t. t is potentially a very long (length ~= 500,000) string, and s is a short string (<=100).
A subsequence of a string is a new string which is formed from the original string by deleting some (can be none) of the characters without disturbing the relative positions of the remaining characters. (ie, “ace” is a subsequence of “abcde” while “aec” is not).
Example 1:
s = “abc”, t = “ahbgdc”
Return true.
Example 2:
s = “axc”, t = “ahbgdc”
Return false.
Follow up:
If there are lots of incoming S, say S1, S2, … , Sk where k >= 1B, and you want to check one by one to see if T has its subsequence. In this scenario, how would you change your code?
分析:
这道题要我们判断字符串s是否可以由字符串T删去某些字符构成。设变量len为当前在字符串T中找到的字符串s中字符的个数,遍历字符串T,当s[len]被找到后,len++,当len等于s的长度减1,即在字符串T中找到s,返回true。否则在遍历结束后返回false。时间复杂度为O(n).
代码:
class Solution {
public:
bool isSubsequence(string s, string t) {
if(t.length()<s.length())
return false;
if(s.length() == 0)
return true;
int len = 0;
for(int i = 0;i<t.length();i++)
{
if(len == s.length()-1)
return true;
if(t[i] == s[len])
len++;
}
return false;
}
};
