6. ZigZag Conversion --- leetcode

The string "PAYPALISHIRING" is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)

P   A   H   N
A P L S I I G
Y   I   R

And then read line by line: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"

Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:

string convert(string s, int numRows);

Example 1:

Input: s = "PAYPALISHIRING", numRows = 3
Output: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"

Example 2:

Input: s = "PAYPALISHIRING", numRows = 4
Output: "PINALSIGYAHRPI"
Explanation:

P     I    N
A   L S  I G
Y A   H R
P     I

这个没啥说的了，办法太多了。

class Solution {
public:
    int function_x(int max,int x)
    {
        return x<max?x:((max-1)<<1)-x;
    }
    string convert(string s, int numRows) {
        if(numRows==1)
            return s;
        vector<string> out(numRows);
        for(int i=0;i<s.size();i++)
            out[function_x(numRows,i%((numRows-1)<<1))] += s[i];
        string result;
        for(int i = 0;i<out.size();i++)
            result += out[i];
        return result;
    }
};
