Implement regular expression matching with support for '.'
and '*'
.
'.' Matches any single character.
'*' Matches zero or more of the preceding element.
The matching should cover the entire input string (not partial).
The function prototype should be:
bool isMatch(const char *s, const char *p)
Some examples:
isMatch("aa","a") → false
isMatch("aa","aa") → true
isMatch("aaa","aa") → false
isMatch("aa", "a*") → true
isMatch("aa", ".*") → true
isMatch("ab", ".*") → true
isMatch("aab", "c*a*b") → true
思路1:* 这里是指’*’号前一个字符可以出现0个或多个,而且*前面的字符有可能是’.’
主要分:
p[j] != '*' : if s[i] == p[j] || p[j]=='.' , 则: dp[i][j] == dp[i-1][j-1]
p[j] == '*' : if s[i] !=p[j-1] ,则代表根本无法match,dp[i][j] = dp[i][j-2];
if s[i] ==p[j-1] || p[j-1]=='.', 则代表可以match 0个或者多个。 dp[i][j] = dp[i][j-2] || dp[i-1][j];
dp[i][j-2] 代表match 0 个,dp[i-1][j] 代表match1个(也就是match 多个)
class Solution {
public boolean isMatch(String s, String p) {
int m = s.length();
int n = p.length();
boolean[][] dp = new boolean[m + 1][n + 1];
dp[0][0] = true;
// 1st row;
for(int j = 1; j <= n; j++) {
if(j - 2 >= 0 && p.charAt(j - 1) == '*') {
dp[0][j] = dp[0][j - 2];
}
}
// 1st col;
for(int i = 1; i <= m; i++) {
dp[i][0] = false;
}
// calculate matrix;
for(int i = 1; i <= m; i++) {
for(int j = 1; j <= n; j++) {
if(p.charAt(j - 1) != '*') {
if(s.charAt(i - 1) == p.charAt(j - 1) || p.charAt(j - 1) == '.') {
dp[i][j] = dp[i - 1][j - 1];
}
} else {
// p.charAt(j - 1) == '*';
// 什么也不match,default就是等于dp[i][j - 2];
dp[i][j] = dp[i][j - 2];
if(s.charAt(i - 1) == p.charAt(j - 2) || p.charAt(j - 2) == '.') {
dp[i][j] |= dp[i][j] || dp[i - 1][j];
}
}
}
}
return dp[m][n];
