The string "PAYPALISHIRING"
is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)
P A H N
A P L S I I G
Y I R
And then read line by line: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"
Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:
string convert(string text, int nRows);
convert("PAYPALISHIRING", 3)
should return"PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"
.
解决思路:
对于这个问题,首先要进行分析,如下:
首先,将这个问题分为三个部分
(1)当位于第一行时,每两个之间相差 2*numRows-2;
(2)当位于中间行i行时,偶数列与奇数列之间相差2*(numRows-1-i),奇数列与偶数列之间相差2*i;
(3)当位于最后一行时,每两个元素之间相差2*numRows-2,因此可以和第(1)中情况合并;
Solution:
public class Solution {
public String convert(String s, int numRows) {
if(numRows == 1 || s.length() <= 1)
return s;
char []res = new char[s.length()];
int i;
int j = 0;
for(int row = 0; row < numRows; ++row)
{
if(row == 0){
i = 0;
while(i < s.length()){
res[j++] = s.charAt(i);
i += 2*(numRows-1);
}
}
else if(row == numRows-1){
i = numRows - 1;
while(i < s.length()){
res[j++] = s.charAt(i);
i += 2*(numRows-1);
}
}else{
i = row;
while(i < s.length()){
res[j++] = s.charAt(i);
i += 2*(numRows - 1 - row);
if(i < s.length()){
res[j++] = s.charAt(i);
i += 2*row;
}
}
}
}
return new String(res);
}
}
