LeetCode: Multiply Strings

Given two numbers represented as strings, return multiplication of the numbers as a string.

Note: The numbers can be arbitrarily large and are non-negative.

class Solution {
public:
    string multiply(string num1, string num2) {
        // Start typing your C/C++ solution below
        // DO NOT write int main() function
        int l1 = num1.size();
        int l2 = num2.size();
        vector<int> num(l1+l2, 0);
        
        for(int i = 0; i < l1; ++i)
        {
            int n1 = num1[l1-1-i] - '0';
            int carry = 0;
            for (int j = 0; j < l2; ++j)
            {
                int n2 = num2[l2-1-j] - '0';
                carry = n1*n2 + carry + num[i+j];
                num[i+j] = carry % 10;
                carry /= 10;
            }
            num[i+l2] = carry;
        }
        
        int i = l1 + l2 - 1;
        while (i > 0 && num[i] == 0) --i;
        string result = "";
        while(i >= 0)
            result += char(num[i--] + '0');
            
        return result;
    }
};
