LeetCode150. Evaluate Reverse Polish Notation（思路及python解法）

Evaluate the value of an arithmetic expression in Reverse Polish Notation.

Valid operators are +, -, *, /. Each operand may be an integer or another expression.

Note:

• Division between two integers should truncate toward zero.
• The given RPN expression is always valid. That means the expression would always evaluate to a result and there won't be any divide by zero operation.

Example 1:

Input: ["2", "1", "+", "3", "*"]
Output: 9
Explanation: ((2 + 1) * 3) = 9

Example 2:

Input: ["4", "13", "5", "/", "+"]
Output: 6
Explanation: (4 + (13 / 5)) = 6

用一个stack来存储数字和符号。

遇到符号时，把前两个数字pop()出来进行计算。

python比较闹心的就是除法上，3//2=1， -3//2=-2。所以我直接都转为正数进行计算，再加入符号。

class Solution(object):
    def evalRPN(self, tokens):
        """
        :type tokens: List[str]
        :rtype: int
        """
        if len(tokens)==0:return
        stack=[]
        
        for c in tokens:
            if c in '+-*/':
                b=int(stack.pop())
                a=int(stack.pop())
                if c=='+':
                    stack.append(a+b)
                elif c=='-':
                    stack.append(a-b)
                elif c=='*':
                    stack.append(a*b)
                else:
                    num=abs(a)//abs(b)
                    sym=-1 if a*b<0 else 1
                    stack.append(sym*num)
            else:
                stack.append(c)
        
        return stack[0]
