剑指 Offer 45. 把数组排成最小的数

class Solution {
public:
    struct cmp{
        bool operator()(string a, string b){return a+b < b+a ;}
    }cmp;
    string minNumber(vector<int>& nums) {
        vector<string> vec;
        for(auto num: nums)
            vec.push_back(to_string(num));

        sort(vec.begin(),vec.end(),cmp);
        string result = "";

        for(auto it=vec.begin();it!=vec.end();it++){
            string str = *it;
            result += str;
        }

        return result;
    }
};

证明见《剑指offer 第二版》P229-P230

书中有一步$$A_1{A}_2\cdots A_{y-1}{A}_y\cdots A_n<A_1{A}_2\cdots A_y{A}_{y-1}\cdots A_n$$
让读者自己证明，下给出证明

因为$$A_{y-1}{A}_y<A_y{A}_{y-1}$$
且两个字符串中$$A_1{A}_2\cdots A_{y-2}XX{A}_{y+1}\cdots A_n$$部分相同，且XX等长。所以$$A_1{A}_2\cdots A_{y-1}{A}_y\cdots A_n<A_1{A}_2\cdots A_y{A}_{y-1}\cdots A_n$$
