# 3. Longest Substring Without Repeating Characters

243人阅读 评论(0)

Given a string, find the length of the longest substring without repeating characters.

Examples:

Given "abcabcbb", the answer is "abc", which the length is 3.

Given "bbbbb", the answer is "b", with the length of 1.

Given "pwwkew", the answer is "wke", with the length of 3. Note that the answer must be a substring, "pwke" is a subsequence and not a substring.

class Solution {
public:
int lengthOfLongestSubstring(string s) {
if(s.empty()) return 0;
string str;
string result ;
for(int i = 0; i < s.size();i++){
str.clear();
str.push_back(s[i]);
int j = i+1;
while(j < s.size() && str.find(s[j]) == string::npos)
str.push_back(s[j++]);
if(str.size() > result.size())
result = str;
}
return result.size();
}
};
//DP解法
class Solution {
public:
int lengthOfLongestSubstring(string s) {
if(s.empty()) return 0;
vector<int> dp(s.size());
dp[0] = 1;
for(int i = 1; i < s.size();i++){
int start = i - dp[i-1];
//string str = s.substr(start,dp[i-1]);
int loc = s.find(s[i],start);
if(loc == string::npos || loc >= i)
dp[i] = dp[i-1] + 1;
else dp[i] = i-loc;
}
int result = 0;
for(auto d : dp)
result = max(result,d);
return result;
}
};

/**
* Solution (DP, O(n)):
*
* Assume L[i] = s[m...i], denotes the longest substring without repeating
* characters that ends up at s[i], and we keep a hashmap for every
* characters between m ... i, while storing <character, index> in the
* hashmap.
* We know that each character will appear only once.
* Then to find s[i+1]:
* 1) if s[i+1] does not appear in hashmap
*    we can just add s[i+1] to hash map. and L[i+1] = s[m...i+1]
* 2) if s[i+1] exists in hashmap, and the hashmap value (the index) is k
*    let m = max(m, k), then L[i+1] = s[m...i+1], we also need to update
*    entry in hashmap to mark the latest occurency of s[i+1].
*
* Since we scan the string for only once, and the 'm' will also move from
* beginning to end for at most once. Overall complexity is O(n).
*
* If characters are all in ASCII, we could use array to mimic hashmap.
