问题:
Given a nested list of integers, implement an iterator to flatten it.
Each element is either an integer, or a list -- whose elements may also be integers or other lists.
Example 1:
Given the list [[1,1],2,[1,1]]
,
By calling next repeatedly until hasNext returns false, the order of elements returned by next should be: [1,1,2,1,1]
.
Example 2:
Given the list [1,[4,[6]]]
,
By calling next repeatedly until hasNext returns false, the order of elements returned by next should be: [1,4,6]
.
解决:
① 根据题目和给出的接口定义,我们知道每一个NestedInteger实际上是一棵树,所有的Integer都在树的叶子节点上(树的叶子节点不全是Integer,还包括空List),我们要遍历的nestedList其实就是NestedInteger组成的森林。对nestedList中树的遍历,我们从左向右遍历,对每一颗树,我们采用后根遍历,最后得出的结果就是题目要求的。借助栈实现迭代。
/**
* // This is the interface that allows for creating nested lists.
* // You should not implement it, or speculate about its implementation
* public interface NestedInteger {
*
* // @return true if this NestedInteger holds a single integer, rather than a nested list.
* public boolean isInteger();
*
* // @return the single integer that this NestedInteger holds, if it holds a single integer
* // Return null if this NestedInteger holds a nested list
* public Integer getInteger();
*
* // @return the nested list that this NestedInteger holds, if it holds a nested list
* // Return null if this NestedInteger holds a single integer
* public List<NestedInteger> getList();
* }

public class NestedIterator implements Iterator<Integer> { //10ms
Stack<NestedInteger> stack = new Stack<>();
public NestedIterator(List<NestedInteger> nestedList) {
if (nestedList == null) return;
for (int i = nestedList.size() - 1;i >= 0;i --){
stack.push(nestedList.get(i));
}
}
@Override
public Integer next() {
return stack.pop().getInteger();
}
@Override
public boolean hasNext() {
while(! stack.isEmpty()){
NestedInteger top = stack.peek();
if (top.isInteger()){
return true;
}else{
stack.pop();
for (int i = top.getList().size() - 1;i >= 0; i --){
stack.push(top.getList().get(i));
}
}
}
return false;
}
}
/**
* Your NestedIterator object will be instantiated and called as such:
* NestedIterator i = new NestedIterator(nestedList);
* while (i.hasNext()) v[f()] = i.next();
*/
② 在构造时直接将递归faltten之后的结果保存在list中。
class NestedIterator implements Iterator<Integer> { //6ms
int index = 0;
List<Integer> list;
public NestedIterator(List<NestedInteger> nestedList) {
list = new ArrayList<>();
flattern(nestedList);
}
public void flattern(List<NestedInteger> nestedList){
for (NestedInteger nestedInteger : nestedList){
if (nestedInteger.isInteger()){
list.add(nestedInteger.getInteger());
}else {
flattern(nestedInteger.getList());
}
}
}
@Override
public Integer next() {
return list.get(index ++);
}
@Override
public boolean hasNext() {
return index < list.size();
}
}
