[LeetCode] Scramble String 解题报告

Given a string   s1, we may represent it as a binary tree by partitioning it to two non-empty substrings recursively.

Below is one possible representation of   s1  =   "great":

    great
   /    \
  gr    eat
 / \    /  \
g   r  e   at
           / \
          a   t

To scramble the string, we may choose any non-leaf node and swap its two children.

For example, if we choose the node   "gr"  and swap its two children, it produces a scrambled string   "rgeat".

    rgeat
   /    \
  rg    eat
 / \    /  \
r   g  e   at
           / \
          a   t

We say that   "rgeat"  is a scrambled string of   "great".

Similarly, if we continue to swap the children of nodes   "eat"  and   "at", it produces a scrambled string   "rgtae".

    rgtae
   /    \
  rg    tae
 / \    /  \
r   g  ta  e
       / \
      t   a

We say that   "rgtae"  is a scrambled string of   "great".

Given two strings   s1  and   s2  of the same length, determine if   s2  is a scrambled string of   s1.

[解题思路]
首先想到的是递归，简单明了，对两个string进行partition，然后比较四个字符串段。但是递归的话，这个时间复杂度比较高。然后想到能否DP，但是即使用DP的话，也要O(n^3)。想想算了，还是在递归里做些剪枝，这样就可以避免冗余计算：

• 对于每两个要比较的partition，统计他们字符出现次数，如果不相等返回。

 上网搜了一下，有人说可以O(n)做出来。 http://www.mitbbs.com/article_t/JobHunting/32114513.html
但是我没办法证明他这个算法的正确性。感觉这道题应该有O(n)的解法，一时想不出来。
