leetcode 691. Stickers to Spell Word

给定不同类型的贴纸,每张贴纸上有一个小写字母的英文单词。你需要找出拼出给定字符串所需的最少贴纸数量。可以重复使用贴纸,且数量无限。如果无法拼出目标字符串,则返回-1。例如,输入为'stew'时,输出为4。题目具有一定的解题策略,需要凑齐目标字符串的所有字母。

We are given N different types of stickers. Each sticker has a lowercase English word on it.

You would like to spell out the given target string by cutting individual letters from your collection of stickers and rearranging them.

You can use each sticker more than once if you want, and you have infinite quantities of each sticker.

What is the minimum number of stickers that you need to spell out the target? If the task is impossible, return -1.

Example 1:

Input:

["with", "example", "science"], "thehat"

 

Output:

3

 

Explanation:

We can use 2 "with" stickers, and 1 "example" sticker.
After cutting and rearrange the letters of those stickers, we can form the target "thehat".
Also, this is the minimum number of stickers necessary to form the target string.

 

Example 2:

Input:

["notice", "possible"], "basicbasic"

 

Output:

-1

 

Explanation:

We can't form the target "basicbasic" from cutting letters from the given stickers.

 

Note:

  • stickers has length in the range [1, 50].
  • stickers consists of lowercase English words (without apostrophes).
  • target has length in the range [1, 15], and consists of lowercase English letters.
  • In all test cases, all words were chosen randomly from the 1000 most common US English words, and the target was chosen as a concatenation of two random words.
  • The time limit may be more challenging than usual. It is expected that a 50 sticker test case can be solved within 35ms on average.

解题思路:

参考zestypanda的解法

这是一道拼接题,也就是说只要凑够target中所有相应个数的字母,就可以拼出target,所以不用遍历target的字母依次找属于字符串。

class Solution {
public:
    int minStickers(vector<string>& stickers, string target) 
    {
        int len = stickers.size() ;
        vector<vector<int> > match(len , vector<int>(26 , 0)) ;
        
        for(int i = 0 ; i < len ; ++i)
        {
            for(auto c : stickers[i]) match[i][c - 'a']++ ;
        }
        
        unordered_map<string , int> dp ;
        dp[""] = 0 ;
        
        return DFS(stickers , dp , match , target) ;
    }
    
private :
    
    int DFS(vector<string> & stickers , unordered_map<string , int> & dp ,vector<vector<int>> & match , string target)
    {
        if(dp.count(target)) return dp[target] ;
        
        vector<int> tar(26 , 0) ;
        int res = INT_MAX ;
        for(auto c : target) tar[c - 'a']++ ;
        
        for(int i = 0 ; i < stickers.size() ; ++i)
        {
            if(match[i][target[0] - 'a'] == 0) continue ;
            
            string s ;
            for(int j = 0 ; j < 26 ; ++j)
            {
                if(tar[j] > match[i][j]) s += string(tar[j] - match[i][j] , 'a'+j) ;
            }
            
            int tmp = DFS(stickers , dp , match , s) ;
            if(tmp != -1)
            {
                res = min(res , 1 + tmp) ;
            }
        }
        
        dp[target] = res == INT_MAX ? -1 : res ;
        return dp[target] ;
    }
};
