680. Valid Palindrome II

本文介绍一种算法,用于判断一个字符串在允许删除一个字符的情况下是否能变成回文串。通过双指针技巧,从两端向中间遍历比较字符,若不匹配则尝试跳过一个字符继续检查。

Given a non-empty string s, you may delete at most one character. Judge whether you can make it a palindrome.

Example 1:

Input: "aba"
Output: True

Example 2:

Input: "abca"
Output: True
Explanation: You could delete the character 'c'.

Note:

  1. The string will only contain lowercase characters a-z. The maximum length of the string is 50000.

题目大意是,在允许删除一个字符的前提下,判断一个字符串是否可能是回文字符串。

eg:

a b b c d c b a

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

设置两根指针,left 和right 分别指向头尾。 

当left == 2 && right == 5 的时候,他们指向的字符不一样,可以被分为两种情况:

1. 删除s[left],判断s[3] - s[5]是不是回文

2. 删除s[right], 判断s[2] - s[4]是不是回文

根据上述推断可以写出代码:

class Solution {
public:
    bool isPalindrome(string s, int left, int right) {
        while (left < right) {
            if (s[left] == s[right]) {
                left++;
                right--;
            } else {
                return false;
            }
        }
        return true;
    }
    bool validPalindrome(string s) {
        if (s.length() < 2) {
            return true;
        }
        int left = 0;
        int right = s.length() - 1;
        while (left < right) {
            if (s[left] != s[right]) {
                return isPalindrome(s, left + 1, right) || isPalindrome(s, left, right - 1);
            } 
                left++;
                right--;
            
        }
        return true;
    }
};






### XTUOJ Perfect Palindrome Problem Analysis For the **Perfect Palindrome** problem on the XTUOJ platform, understanding palindromes and string manipulation algorithms plays a crucial role. A palindrome refers to a word, phrase, number, or other sequences of characters which reads the same backward as forward[^1]. The challenge typically involves checking whether a given string meets specific conditions to be considered a perfect palindrome. In many similar problems, preprocessing steps such as converting all letters into lowercase (or uppercase) can simplify subsequent checks by ensuring case insensitivity during comparison operations. Additionally, removing non-alphanumeric characters ensures that only relevant symbols participate in determining if the sequence forms a valid palindrome[^2]. To determine if a string is a perfect palindrome, one approach iterates from both ends towards the center while comparing corresponding elements until reaching the midpoint without encountering mismatches: ```python def is_perfect_palindrome(s): cleaned_string = ''.join(char.lower() for char in s if char.isalnum()) left_index = 0 right_index = len(cleaned_string) - 1 while left_index < right_index: if cleaned_string[left_index] != cleaned_string[right_index]: return False left_index += 1 right_index -= 1 return True ``` This function first creates `cleaned_string`, stripping away any irrelevant characters and normalizing cases. Then through iteration with two pointers moving inward simultaneously (`left_index` starting at position 0 and `right_index` initially set to the last index), comparisons occur between pairs of opposing positions within the processed input string. If every pair matches perfectly throughout this process, then the original string qualifies as a "perfect palindrome".
