[leetcode 249] Group Shifted Strings

Question:

Given a string, we can "shift" each of its letter to its successive letter, for example:"abc" -> "bcd". We can keep "shifting" which forms the sequence:

"abc" -> "bcd" -> ... -> "xyz"

Given a list of strings which contains only lowercase alphabets, group all strings that belong to the same shifting sequence.


For example, given:["abc", "bcd", "acef", "xyz", "az", "ba", "a", "z"],

Return:

[

  ["abc","bcd","xyz"],

  ["az","ba"],

  ["acef"],

  ["a","z"]

]


分析:

使用hashmap,关键字key为首个字符串相邻元素的差值和,如果差值为负数,则加上26,比如“abc”的key是(‘a’-‘b’+26)+(‘b’-‘c’+26),再转化成字符串。

这样,shifted字符串的关键字key相同。


代码如下:

<span style="font-size:14px;">class Solution {
public:
    vector<vector<string>> groupStrings(vector<string>& strings) {
        unordered_map<string, vector<string>> hashmap;
        vector<vector<string>> res;
        
        for (int i = 0; i < strings.size(); ++i) {
            hashmap[calKey(strings[i])].push_back(strings[i]);
        }
        
        for (auto it = hashmap.begin(); it != hashmap.end(); ++it) {
            sort(it->second.begin(), it->second.end());//second 访问的是map的第二个元素,即元素值。
            vector<string> tmp = it->second;
            res.push_back(tmp);
        }
        
        return res;
    }
private:
    string calKey(string input) {
        string key = "";
        for (int i = 0; i < input.length() - 1; ++i) {
            int gap = (input[i] > input[i+1]) ? (input[i] - input[i+1]) : (input[i] - input[i+1] + 26);
            char num = 'a' + gap;
            key += num;
        }
        return key;
    }
};</span>
