LeetCode 179. Largest Number

Given a list of non negative integers, arrange them such that they form the largest number.

For example, given [3, 30, 34, 5, 9], the largest formed number is 9534330.

Note: The result may be very large, so you need to return a string instead of an integer.

该题目需要防止出现都是0的状态

java

class Solution {
    public String largestNumber(int[] nums) {
        if (nums == null || nums.length == 0) {
            return "";
        }
        Integer[] arr = new Integer[nums.length];
        for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {
            arr[i] = new Integer(nums[i]);
        }
        Comparator<Integer> cmp = new Comparator<Integer>() {
            public int compare(Integer a1, Integer a2) {
                String str1 = a1 + "" + a2;
                String str2 = a2 + "" + a1;
                return -str1.compareTo(str2);
            }
        };
        Arrays.sort(arr, cmp);
        StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
        for (int val : arr) {
            sb.append(val);
        }
        String str = sb.toString();
        if (str.charAt(0) == '0' && str.charAt(str.length() - 1) == '0') {
            return 0 + "";
        } else {
            return str;
        }
    }
}
