Given a string s1, we may represent it as a binary tree by partitioning it to two non-empty substrings recursively.
Below is one possible representation of s1 = “great”:
great
/ \
gr eat
/ \ / \
g r e at
/ \
a t
To scramble the string, we may choose any non-leaf node and swap its two children.
For example, if we choose the node “gr” and swap its two children, it produces a scrambled string “rgeat”.
rgeat
/ \
rg eat
/ \ / \
r g e at
/ \
a t
We say that “rgeat” is a scrambled string of “great”.
Similarly, if we continue to swap the children of nodes “eat” and “at”, it produces a scrambled string “rgtae”.
rgtae
/ \
rg tae
/ \ / \
r g ta e
/ \
t a
We say that “rgtae” is a scrambled string of “great”.
Given two strings s1 and s2 of the same length, determine if s2 is a scrambled string of s1.
思路:利用递归可以求解,其中使用一个cnt数组来优化,数组的作用就是判断相同长度的两个字符串所包含的字母类型和数量是否相同。算法实现如下:
class Solution {
public:
bool isScramble(string s1, string s2) {
if (s1 == s2) return true;
int len = s1.size();
vector<int> cnt(26, 0);
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
cnt[s1[i]-'a']++;
cnt[s2[i]-'a']--;
}
for (int i = 0; i < 26; i++) {
if (cnt[i]) return false;
}
for (int i = 1; i <= len-1; i++) {
if (isScramble(s1.substr(0, i), s2.substr(0, i)) && isScramble(s1.substr(i), s2.substr(i))) return true;
if (isScramble(s1.substr(0, i), s2.substr(len-i)) && isScramble(s1.substr(i), s2.substr(0, len-i))) return true;
}
return false;
}
};
