The gray code is a binary numeral system where two successive values differ in only one bit.
Given a non-negative integer n representing the total number of bits in the code, print the sequence of gray code. A gray code sequence must begin with 0.
For example, given n = 2, return [0,1,3,2]
. Its gray code sequence is:
00 - 0 01 - 1 11 - 3 10 - 2
Note:
For a given n, a gray code sequence is not uniquely defined.
For example, [0,2,3,1]
is also a valid gray code sequence according to the above definition.
For now, the judge is able to judge based on one instance of gray code sequence. Sorry about that.
Java:
public class Solution {
public ArrayList<Integer> grayCode(int n) {
ArrayList<Integer> result = new ArrayList<Integer>();
if(n <1)
{
result.add(0);
return result;
}
return calculateCode(result, n);
}
public ArrayList<Integer> calculateCode(ArrayList<Integer> result, int n)
{
if(n==1)
{
result.add(0);
result.add(1);
return result;
}
ArrayList<Integer> oldlist = calculateCode(result, n-1);
int addnum = 1 << (n-1);
for(int i=oldlist.size() -1; i>=0; i--)
{
result.add(addnum + result.get(i));
}
return result;
}
}
