Given three strings A, B and C. Write a function that checks whether C is an interleaving of A and B. C is said to be interleaving A and B, if it contains all characters of A and B and order of all characters in individual strings is preserved.
We have discussed a simple solution of this problem here. The simple solution doesn’t work if strings A and B have some common characters. For example A = “XXY”, string B = “XXZ” and string C = “XXZXXXY”. To handle all cases, two possibilities need to be considered.
a) If first character of C matches with first character of A, we move one character ahead in A and C and recursively check.
b) If first character of C matches with first character of B, we move one character ahead in B and C and recursively check.
If any of the above two cases is true, we return true, else false. Following is simple recursive implementation of this approach (Thanks to Frederic for suggesting this)
这是一系列的几道题:
1 判断c是否是由a和b交叉而得:
1. 递归 2 DP 3 3指针,但是当有重复字符出现时出错!
2 打印出a和b交叉而得的所有组合:递归

本文探讨了如何通过递归、动态规划和双指针法判断一个字符串是否由两个给定字符串交织而成,并实现了相应的算法。同时展示了如何使用递归来打印两个字符串交织的所有可能组合。
