BJP3 Exercise 12.10: digitMatch
![Already solved; good work! not solved](http://practiceit.cs.washington.edu/images/solved.gif)
Write a recursive method digitMatch
that accepts two non-negative integers as parameters and that returns the number of digits that match between them. Two digits match if they are equal and have the same position relative to the end of the number (i.e. starting with the ones digit). In other words, the method should compare the last digits of each number, the second-to-last digits of each number, the third-to-last digits of each number, and so forth, counting how many pairs match. For example, for the call ofdigitMatch(1072503891, 62530841)
, the method would compare as follows:
1 0 7 2 5 0 3 8 9 1 | | | | | | | | 6 2 5 3 0 8 4 1
The method should return 4
in this case because 4 of these pairs match (2-2, 5-5, 8-8, and 1-1). Below are more examples:
Call | Value Returned |
---|---|
digitMatch(38, 34) | 1 |
digitMatch(5, 5552) | 0 |
digitMatch(892, 892) | 3 |
digitMatch(298892, 7892) | 3 |
digitMatch(380, 0) | 1 |
digitMatch(123456, 654321) | 0 |
digitMatch(1234567, 67) | 2 |
Your method should throw an IllegalArgumentException
if either of the two parameters is negative. You are not allowed to construct any structured objects other than String
s (no array, List
, Scanner
, etc.) and you may not use any loops to solve this problem; you must use recursion.

public int digitMatch(int x, int y){
if(x < 0 || y < 0){
throw new IllegalArgumentException();
}
else if(x < 10 || y < 10){
if(x % 10 == y % 10)
return 1;
else
return 0;
} else if( x % 10 == y % 10){
return 1 + digitMatch(x/10, y/10);
} else{
return digitMatch(x/10,y/10);
}
}
我的草稿:
public static int digitMatch(int n1, int n2) {
if (n1 < 0 || n2 < 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException();
}else if(n1 ==0 || n2==0){
return 0;
} else {
if (n1 % 10 == n2 % 10) {
return 1 + digitMatch(n1 / 10, n2 / 10);
} else {
return 0 + digitMatch(n1 / 10, n2 / 10);
}
}
