Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring cases.
For example,
"A man, a plan, a canal: Panama"
is a palindrome.
"race a car"
is not a palindrome.
Note:
Have you consider that the string might be empty? This is a good question to ask during an interview.
For the purpose of this problem, we define empty string as valid palindrome.
回文字符串,就是指去掉所有标点符合后,只有数字和字符,回文就可以了。
注意正则表达式的使用:
public boolean isPalindrome(String s) {
s = s.toLowerCase().replaceAll("[^a-z|^0-9]", "");
int len = s.length();
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
if (s.charAt(i) != s.charAt(len - 1 - i))
return false;
}
return true;
}
