The string “PAYPALISHIRING” is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)
P A H N
A P L S I I G
Y I R
And then read line by line: “PAHNAPLSIIGYIR”
Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:
string convert(string text, int nRows);
convert(“PAYPALISHIRING”, 3) should return “PAHNAPLSIIGYIR”.
我的思路:
字符间的间隔是有规律可循的
第一行和最后一行的间隔为(nRows-1)*2
对于中间行的间距,第i行的间距有两种情况 分别为(nRows-1)*2-(i-1)*2和(i-1)*2
class Solution(object):
def convert(self, s, numRows):
"""
:type s: str
:type numRows: int
:rtype: str
"""
length = len(s)
out=[]
dis = (numRows-1)<<1
if dis==0:
return s
for i in range(1,numRows+1):
pi = i-1
temp=(i-1)*2
ini = dis - temp
while pi<length:
out.append(s[pi])
if ini == 0: ini = dis
pi = pi + ini
ini = dis - ini
return ''.join(out)
