Given a string s, find the longest palindromic substring in s. You may assume that the maximum length of s is 1000.
Example:
Input: "babad" Output: "bab" Note: "aba" is also a valid answer.
Example:
Input: "cbbd" Output: "bb"
字符串处理的题目,有多种解法,有一种时间复杂度为O(n3)的解法比较直接,即直接从左往右,依次判断以当前字符为首字符的最长对称子串。
下面给出的解法时间复杂度为O(n2),即以选中的字符为中心,向两边展开判断是否是对称子串。通过下列程序可知,程序时间复杂度为2*(1+2+3+...+ n/2),最长依次扫描的位置为输入字符串中间。
class Solution {
public int getPalindromeLen(String s, int left, int right){
while (left >= 0&&right < s.length()&&s.charAt(left) == s.charAt(right)){
left --;
right ++;
}
return (right - left - 1);
}
public String longestPalindrome(String s) {
int size = s.length();
int start = 0, end = 0;
int maxLen = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < size; ++ i){
int len1 = getPalindromeLen(s, i, i); // get single middle
int len2 = getPalindromeLen(s, i, i + 1);
int len = Math.max(len1, len2);
if (maxLen < len){
maxLen = len;
start = i - (len - 1)/2;
end = i + len/2;
}
}
return s.substring(start, end + 1);
}
}
