Given a string s1, we may represent it as a binary tree by partitioning it to two non-empty substrings recursively.
Below is one possible representation of s1 = "great"
:
great / \ gr eat / \ / \ g r e at / \ a t
To scramble the string, we may choose any non-leaf node and swap its two children.
For example, if we choose the node "gr"
and swap its two children, it produces a scrambled string "rgeat"
.
rgeat / \ rg eat / \ / \ r g e at / \ a t
We say that "rgeat"
is a scrambled string of "great"
.
Similarly, if we continue to swap the children of nodes "eat"
and "at"
, it produces a scrambled string "rgtae"
.
rgtae / \ rg tae / \ / \ r g ta e / \ t a
We say that "rgtae"
is a scrambled string of "great"
.
Given two strings s1 and s2 of the same length, determine if s2 is a scrambled string of s1.
思路: 用DP 来做 ,设置一个三维boolean array, dp[i][j][len] 为true 代表 ,s1 start from i, s2 start from j, they are length equals len scramble string . At first, they need to initialize the len = 1 . 然后用 len 作为外围循环, 来查找。
如果俩字符串是 scramble 他们中间肯定有个地方能劈开, 也是 scramble。 res[i][j][len] |= (res[i][j][k]&&res[i+k][j+k][len-k] || res[i][j+len-k][k]&&res[i+k][j][len-k])
易错点: Length could be n. And in the second time traverse, the i + len should be less or equal than n, same to j + len.
public class Solution {
public boolean isScramble(String s1, String s2) {
if(s1 == null)
return true;
int n = s1.length();
boolean[][][] dp = new boolean[n][n][n + 1];
//initialize
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++){
for(int j = 0; j < n; j++){
if(s1.charAt(i) == s2.charAt(j)){
dp[i][j][1] = true;
}
}
}
for(int len = 2; len <= n; len++){//---length could be n
for(int i = 0; i + len <= n; i++){//---Pay more attation at here
for(int j = 0; j + len <= n; j++){//---
for(int k = 1; k < len; k++){
dp[i][j][len] |= (dp[i][j][k] && dp[i + k][j + k][len - k]) || (dp[i][j + k][len - k] && dp[i + len - k][j][k]);
}
}
}
}
return dp[0][0][n];
}
}
