1.题目
Implement regular expression matching with support for '.'
and '*'
.
'.' Matches any single character.
'*' Matches zero or more of the preceding element.
The matching should cover the entire input string (not partial).
The function prototype should be:
bool isMatch(const char *s, const char *p)
Some examples:
isMatch("aa","a") → false
isMatch("aa","aa") → true
isMatch("aaa","aa") → false
isMatch("aa", "a*") → true
isMatch("aa", ".*") → true
isMatch("ab", ".*") → true
isMatch("aab", "c*a*b") → true
'.' 匹配单个的任意字符,
'*' 匹配0个或者多个前一个字符;
2.思路
利用递归。
bool isMatch(const char *s, const char *p) {
if (*p == 0) return *s == 0;
if (*(p+1) != '*')
{
if (*s != 0 && (*p == *s || *p == '.')) return isMatch(s+1, p+1);
else return false;
}
else
{
// *s == *p
while (*s != 0 && (*s == *p || *p == '.'))
{
if (isMatch(s, p+2)) return true;
s++;
}
return (isMatch(s, p+2));
}
}
