Description
The string "PAYPALISHIRING" is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)
P A H N
A P L S I I G
Y I R
And then read line by line: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"
Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:
string convert(string text, int nRows);
convert("PAYPALISHIRING", 3) should return "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR".
Solution
这种题目没什么算法可言,按照ZigZag给定的格式在二维数组中相应的填充字符即可。
代码实现如下:
class Solution {
public:
// 模拟规则在数组中进行填充
string convert(string s, int numRows) {
// special case
if (numRows == 0 || numRows == 1)
return s;
// 申请数组并初始化
int rows = numRows;
int columns = s.length();
ZigZag = new char*[rows];
for (int i = 0; i < rows; i++) {
ZigZag[i] = new char[columns];
for (int j = 0; j < columns; j++)
ZigZag[i][j] = '\0';
}
// 填充
index = row = column = 0;
while (index < s.length()) {
while (index < s.length() && row < rows - 1) {
ZigZag[row][column] = s[index++];
row++;
}
while (index < s.length() && row > 0) {
ZigZag[row][column] = s[index++];
row--;
column++;
}
}
// 输出、释放内存
string result;
for (int i = 0; i < rows; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < columns; j++)
if (ZigZag[i][j] != '\0')
result += ZigZag[i][j];
delete[] ZigZag[i];
}
delete[] ZigZag;
// 返回结果
return result;
}
private:
char** ZigZag = NULL;
int index;
int row;
int column;
};
