题目描述:
A robot is located at the top-left corner of a m x n grid (marked 'Start' in the diagram below).
The robot can only move either down or right at any point in time. The robot is trying to reach the bottom-right corner of the grid (marked 'Finish' in the diagram below).
How many possible unique paths are there?
Above is a 3 x 7 grid. How many possible unique paths are there?
这是简单的排列组合问题,即从m+n步中,随便选取其中m步往下走,另外n步往右走。可以直接用公式或者递归实现。递归公式也不难得到:C(m,n)=C(m-1,n)+ C(m,n-1)。但是递归效率较低,可以采用二维数组表示网格中从起点到该格点当前可行的路径数,利用v[i][j]=v[i-1][j]+v[i][j-1]递推关系得到终点的路径数。
class Solution {
public:
int uniquePaths(int m, int n)
{
int v[m][n];
for(int i=0;i<m;i++)
{
for(int j=0;j<n;j++)
{
if(i==0) v[i][j]=1;
else if(j==0) v[i][j]=1;
else v[i][j]=v[i-1][j]+v[i][j-1];
}
}
return v[m-1][n-1];
}
};
