题目:
There is a box protected by a password. The password is n digits, where each letter can
be one of the first k digits 0,
1, ..., k-1.
You can keep inputting the password, the password will automatically be matched against the last n digits
entered.
For example, assuming the password is "345", I can open it when I type "012345",
but I enter a total of 6 digits.
Please return any string of minimum length that is guaranteed to open the box after the entire string is inputted.
Example 1:
Input: n = 1, k = 2 Output: "01" Note: "10" will be accepted too.
Example 2:
Input: n = 2, k = 2 Output: "00110" Note: "01100", "10011", "11001" will be accepted too.
思路:
采用贪心策略(虽然我没有证明为什么贪心策略是对的)。对于长度为n的密码,我们首先从n个‘0’开始,然后定义prev为当前结果的后n-1个字符,接着我们尝试在ans后面添加一个字符(从k-1到k),从而形成n个字符构成的字符串,如果这个字符串在原来没有出现,则继续添加。为了快速检测哪些字符串已经存在于结果中了,我们用一个哈希表来记录。
代码:
class Solution {
public:
string crackSafe(int n, int k) {
string ans = string(n, '0');
unordered_set<string> visited;
visited.insert(ans);
for(int i = 0; i < pow(k, n); ++i) {
string prev = ans.substr(ans.size() - n + 1, n-1); // the last n - 1 characters
for(int j = k - 1; j >= 0; --j) { // try to append j
string now = prev + to_string(j);
if(!visited.count(now)) {
visited.insert(now);
ans += to_string(j);
break;
}
}
}
return ans;
}
};
本文介绍了一种使用贪心策略的算法,该算法可以找到解锁一个由n位k进制密码保护的密码箱所需的最短字符串。通过实例展示了如何实现这一算法,并提供了C++代码示例。
