Given an absolute path for a file (Unix-style), simplify it. For example,
path = "/home/"
, => "/home"
path = "/a/./b/../../c/"
, => "/c"
Corner Cases:
[解题思路]- Did you consider the case where path =
"/../"
?
In this case, you should return"/"
. - Another corner case is the path might contain multiple slashes
'/'
together, such as"/home//foo/"
.
In this case, you should ignore redundant slashes and return"/home/foo"
.
利用栈的特性,如果sub string element
1. 等于“/”,跳过,直接开始寻找下一个element
2. 等于“.”,什么都不需要干,直接开始寻找下一个element
3. 等于“..”,弹出栈顶元素,寻找下一个element
4. 等于其他,插入当前elemnt为新的栈顶,寻找下一个element
最后,再根据栈的内容,重新拼path。这样可以避免处理连续多个“/”的问题。
string simplifyPath(string path) {
vector<string> stack;
assert(path[0]=='/');
int i=0;
while(i< path.size())
{
while(path[i] =='/' && i< path.size()) i++; //skip the begining '////'
if(i == path.size())
break;
int start = i;
while(path[i]!='/' && i< path.size()) i++; //decide the end boundary
int end = i-1;
string element = path.substr(start, end-start+1);
if(element == "..")
{
if(stack.size() >0)
stack.pop_back();
}
else if(element!=".")
stack.push_back(element);
}
if(stack.size() ==0) return "/";
string simpPath;
for(int i =0; i<stack.size(); i++)
simpPath += "/" + stack[i];
return simpPath;
}
