LeetCode 058 Length of Last Word

题目描述

Given a string s consists of upper/lower-case alphabets and empty space characters ’ ‘, return the length of last word in the string.

If the last word does not exist, return 0.

Note: A word is defined as a character sequence consists of non-space characters only.

For example,
Given s = “Hello World”,
return 5.

代码

    public static int lengthOfLastWord(String s) {

        if (s == null || s.length() == 0) {
            return 0;
        }

        int len = 0;
        int i = s.length() - 1;

        while (i >= 0 && s.charAt(i) == ' ') {
            i--;
        }

        while (i >= 0 && s.charAt(i) != ' ') {
            len++;
            i--;
        }

        return len;
    }
