Given an arbitrary ransom note string and another string containing letters from all the magazines, write a function that will return true if the ransom note can be constructed from the magazines ; otherwise, it will return false.
Each letter in the magazine string can only be used once in your ransom note.
Note:
You may assume that both strings contain only lowercase letters.
canConstruct("a", "b") -> false canConstruct("aa", "ab") -> false canConstruct("aa", "aab") -> true
思路:
检查前面的勒索信是否可以由后面的字符串拼接而成
public boolean canConstruct(String ransomNote, String magazine) {
int[] map = new int[26];
for (int i = 0; i < magazine.length(); i++) {
map[magazine.charAt(i) - 'a']++;
}
for (int i = 0; i < ransomNote.length(); i++) {
if (map[ransomNote.charAt(i) - 'a'] > 0) {
map[ransomNote.charAt(i) - 'a']--;
} else {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
