题目描述:
Roman numerals are represented by seven different symbols: I
, V
, X
, L
, C
, D
and M
.
Symbol Value
I 1
V 5
X 10
L 50
C 100
D 500
M 1000
For example, two is written as II
in Roman numeral, just two one's added together. Twelve is written as, XII
, which is simply X
+ II
. The number twenty seven is written as XXVII
, which is XX
+ V
+ II
.
Roman numerals are usually written largest to smallest from left to right. However, the numeral for four is not IIII
. Instead, the number four is written as IV
. Because the one is before the five we subtract it making four. The same principle applies to the number nine, which is written as IX
. There are six instances where subtraction is used:
I
can be placed beforeV
(5) andX
(10) to make 4 and 9.X
can be placed beforeL
(50) andC
(100) to make 40 and 90.C
can be placed beforeD
(500) andM
(1000) to make 400 and 900.
Given a roman numeral, convert it to an integer. Input is guaranteed to be within the range from 1 to 3999.
解决方法:例如,罗马数字VI,我们可以发现它转为阿拉伯数字是6,其实就是5+1,而罗马数字IV是4,其实就是5-1.所以我们在解这道题时,找到最大的数字的罗马字符,字符在这个罗马字符右边的,我们加上它所代表的数字,而位于左边的字符,我们减去它所代表的阿拉伯数字。
首先我们先写个单个罗马字符转为阿拉伯数字的函数
public static int tovalue(char s){//找到罗马字符对应的数字
for(int i=0;i<digist.length;i++){
if(digist[i]==s){
return values[i];
}
}
return 0;
}
然后我们需要找到最大罗马字符的下标
public static int toMaxIndex(String s,int l,int r){//找到最大罗马字符的下标
int maxIndex=l;//假设最大罗马字符的下标是左边的第一个
int max=tovalue(s.charAt(l));
for(int i=l;i<r;i++){
if(tovalue(s.charAt(i))>max){
max=tovalue(s.charAt(i));
maxIndex=i;
}
}
return maxIndex;
}
最后我们通过递归函数,转为阿拉伯数字。
public static int turnArabic(String s,int l,int r){
if(l==r){
return tovalue(s.charAt(l));
}
else if(l>r){//如果l>r,时返回0;
return 0;
}
int mid=toMaxIndex(s, l, r);
int max=tovalue(s.charAt(mid));
int left=turnArabic(s, l, mid-1);
int right=turnArabic(s,mid+1,r);
return max-left+right;
}
