leetcode 6. ZigZag Conversion

题目

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".

class Solution {
    public String convert(String s, int numRows) {
        int n = s.length();
        char[] c = s.toCharArray();
        if (n < numRows) {
            return s;
        }
        
        StringBuilder[] sb = new StringBuilder[numRows];
        for (int i = 0; i < numRows; i++) {
            sb[i] = new StringBuilder();
        }
        int k = 0;
        while (k < n) {
            for (int i = 0; i < numRows && k < n; i++) {
                sb[i].append(c[k++]);
            }
            for (int i = numRows - 2; i >= 1 && k < n; i--) {
                sb[i].append(c[k++]);
            }
        }
        for (int i = 1; i < numRows; i++) {
            sb[0].append(sb[i]);
        }
        return sb[0].toString();
    }
}
