Rotate String
We are given two strings, A and B.
A shift on A consists of taking string A and moving the leftmost character to the rightmost position. For example, if A = ‘abcde’, then it will be ‘bcdea’ after one shift on A. Return True if and only if A can become B after some number of shifts on A.
Example 1:
Input: A = ‘abcde’, B = ‘cdeab’
Output: true
Example 2:
Input: A = ‘abcde’, B = ‘abced’
Output: false
Note:
- A and B will have length at most 100.
思路:
好像是在《编程珠玑》上面看到过,把A拼接在A后面,即A+A,再去考虑这个问题就简单多了
class Solution {
public:
bool rotateString(string A, string B) {
if(A.size() != B.size()) return false;
if(A.size() == 0) return true; // 两个空串题目认为是true
string a = A + A.substr(0, A.size()-1);
for(int i = 0; i < A.size(); ++i){
if(B == a.substr(i, A.size()))
return true;
} return false;
}
};
discuss上的答案:
bool rotateString(string A, string B) {
return A.size() == B.size() && (A + A).find(B) != string::npos;
}
