Let x and y be two strings over some finite alphabet A. We would like to transformx into y allowing only operations given below:
- Deletion: a letter in x is missing in y at a corresponding position.
- Insertion: a letter in y is missing in x at a corresponding position.
- Change: letters at corresponding positions are distinct
Certainly, we would like to minimize the number of all possible operations.
IllustrationA G T A A G T * A G G C | | | | | | | A G T * C * T G A C G CDeletion: * in the bottom line
Insertion: * in the top line
Change: when the letters at the top and bottom are distinct
This tells us that to transform x = AGTCTGACGC into y = AGTAAGTAGGC we would be required to perform 5 operations (2 changes, 2 deletions and 1 insertion). If we want to minimize the number operations, we should do it like
A G T A A G T A G G C | | | | | | | A G T C T G * A C G C
and 4 moves would be required (3 changes and 1 deletion).
In this problem we would always consider strings x and y to be fixed, such that the number of letters inx is m and the number of letters in y is n wheren ≥ m.
Assign 1 as the cost of an operation performed. Otherwise, assign 0 if there is no operation performed.
Write a program that would minimize the number of possible operations to transform any stringx into a string y.
The input consists of the strings x and y prefixed by their respective lengths, which are within 1000.
An integer representing the minimum number of possible operations to transform any stringx into a string y.

题意:将字符串s1通过删除,添加和变换变成s2的最小操作数
题解:dp[i][j]的意义为y取前i个字母和x取前j个字母的最少操作次数
#include<iostream>
#include<algorithm>
#include<string.h>
char s1[1005];
char s2[1005];
int dp[1005][1005];
using namespace std;
int main(){
int n;
int m;
while(cin>>n>>s1>>m>>s2){
memset(dp,0,sizeof(dp));
//s1经过i次删除与s2的前0个字符
for(int i=1;i<=n;i++)
dp[i][0]=i;
//s1经过j次添加与s2的前j个字符
for(int j=1;j<=m;j++)
dp[0][j]=j;
for(int i=1;i<=n;i++)
for(int j=1;j<=m;j++){
if(s1[i-1]==s2[j-1])
//若字符相等,则无需操作
dp[i][j]=dp[i-1][j-1];
else
//x删除一个字符,x增加一个字符(相当于j删除一个字符)
dp[i][j]=min(dp[i-1][j]+1 ,dp[i][j-1]+1);
dp[i][j]=min(dp[i][j],dp[i-1][j-1]+1);
}
cout<<dp[n][m]<<endl;
}
return 0;
}
