用了两个办法:
(1)试着写了个前缀树,352 ms。
其中最大的trick是要用一个数组 boolean[] searchFlag来记录从s[i]开始的子串(s[i...n-1])是否被搜索过(s[i...n-1]能否由dict的单词组成)。如果被搜索过那就不用再搜索了(因为搜索失败了,如果成功的话程序早已结束)。
import java.util.*;
public class Solution {
class TrieNode {
char ch;
ArrayList<TrieNode> children = new ArrayList<TrieNode>();
TrieNode(char c) {
ch = c;
}
TrieNode() {
ch = '\0';
}
}
public void insert(String word, int ind, TrieNode node) {
if (ind == word.length()) {
TrieNode nNode = new TrieNode('\0');
node.children.add(nNode);
return;
}
int i;
for (i = 0; i < node.children.size(); i++) {
if (node.children.get(i).ch == word.charAt(ind)) {
insert(word, ind + 1, node.children.get(i));
break;
}
}
if (i == node.children.size()) {
TrieNode nNode = new TrieNode(word.charAt(ind));
node.children.add(nNode);
insert(word, ind + 1, nNode);
}
}
public boolean search(String s, int ind, TrieNode root, TrieNode node, boolean[] searchFlag) {
if (ind == s.length()) {
for (int i = 0; i < node.children.size(); i++)
if (node.children.get(i).ch == '\0')
return true;
return false;
}
if(node == root && searchFlag[ind] == true)//the sub string[i...n-1] has been searched before
return false;
int i;
boolean flag = false;
for (i = 0; i < node.children.size(); i++) {
if (node.children.get(i).ch == '\0') {
// end of word, try to search a new word again
flag = search(s, ind, root, root, searchFlag);
searchFlag[ind] =true;
} else if (node.children.get(i).ch == s.charAt(ind)) {
// go on iterate the word
flag = search(s, ind + 1, root, node.children.get(i), searchFlag);
}
if (flag == true)
return true;
}
return false;
}
public boolean wordBreak(String s, Set<String> dict) {
TrieNode root = new TrieNode();
for (String word : dict) {
insert(word, 0, root);
}
boolean[] searchFlag = new boolean[s.length()];
for(int i=0;i<s.length();i++)
searchFlag[i] = false;
boolean flag = search(s, 0, root, root, searchFlag);
return flag;
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
Solution sol = new Solution();
String s = "abcd";
Set<String> dict = new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList("a","abc","b","cd"));
System.out.println(sol.wordBreak(s, dict));
}
}
(2)不用前缀树,直接在set里面查找,因为数据量少的缘故变得更加快了。336ms
public class Solution {
public boolean search(String s, int beg, Set<String> dict, boolean[] searchFlag)
{
if(beg == s.length())
return true;
if(searchFlag[beg] == true)
return false;
boolean flag = false;
for(int e = beg;e<=s.length();e++)
{
String subStr = s.substring(beg,e);
if(dict.contains(subStr))
{
flag = search(s,e,dict,searchFlag);
if(flag == true)
return true;
searchFlag[e] = true;
}
}
return false;
}
public boolean wordBreak(String s, Set<String> dict) {
boolean[] searchFlag = new boolean[s.length()+1];
for(int i=0;i<s.length()-1;i++)
searchFlag[i] = false;
boolean flag = search(s,0,dict, searchFlag);
return flag;
}
}
