Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring cases.
For example,
"A man, a plan, a canal: Panama"
is a palindrome.
"race a car"
is not a palindrome.
Note:
Have you consider that the string might be empty? This is a good question to ask during an interview.
For the purpose of this problem, we define empty string as valid palindrome.
class Solution {
public:
bool isPalindrome(string s) {
int nCount=0;
int nLen=s.length();
for(int i=0;i<nLen;++i)
{
if((toupper(s[i])>='A' && toupper(s[i])<='Z') || (s[i]>='0' && s[i]<='9'))
{
++nCount;
}
}
if(nCount==1) //一个有效字符的情况
{
return true;
}
int nBegin=0;
int nEnd=nLen-1;
int nCompare=0;
while(nBegin<nEnd)
{
if(!((toupper(s[nBegin])>='A' && toupper(s[nBegin])<='Z') ||(s[nBegin]>='0' && s[nBegin]<='9')))
{
++nBegin;
continue;
}
if(!((toupper(s[nEnd])>='A' && toupper(s[nEnd])<='Z')||(s[nEnd]>='0' && s[nEnd]<='9')))
{
--nEnd;
continue;
}
if(toupper(s[nBegin])==toupper(s[nEnd]))
{
++nBegin;
--nEnd;
}
else //不等
{
return false;
}
}
if(nBegin<nEnd)
{
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
};
