Compare Version Numbers Leetcode

Compare Version Numbers

 

Compare two version numbers version1 and version1.
If version1 > version2 return 1, if version1 < version2 return -1, otherwise return 0.

You may assume that the version strings are non-empty and contain only digits and the . character.
The . character does not represent a decimal point and is used to separate number sequences.
For instance, 2.5 is not "two and a half" or "half way to version three", it is the fifth second-level revision of the second first-level revision.

Here is an example of version numbers ordering:

0.1 < 1.1 < 1.2 < 13.37

My Solution:

class Solution {
public:
    int compareVersion(string version1, string version2) {
        if(version1.empty() && version2.empty()) return 0;
        string tmp1,tmp2;
        tmp1.clear();
        tmp2.clear();
        int i=0,j=0;
        while(version1[i]!='.' && i<version1.size()){
            tmp1.push_back(version1[i++]);
        }
        while(version2[j]!='.' && j<version2.size()){
            tmp2.push_back(version2[j++]);
        }
         
        string v1,v2;
        for(int k=i+1;k<version1.size();++k)
            v1.push_back(version1[k]);
        for(int k=j+1;k<version2.size();++k)
            v2.push_back(version2[k]);
        
        const char *t1=tmp1.c_str();
        const char *t2=tmp2.c_str();
        if(atoi(t1)==atoi(t2)) 
            return compareVersion(v1,v2);
        else if(atoi(t1)<atoi(t2))   
            return -1;
        else if(atoi(t1)>atoi(t2))      
            return 1;
    }
};
