我正在解决这个问题 –
Given a string consisting of a,b and c’s, we can take any two adjacent
distinct characters and replace it with the third character. For
example, if ‘a’ and ‘c’ are adjacent, they can replaced with ‘b’. What
is the smallest string which can result by applying this operation
repeatedly?
现在我编写了以下递归解决方案(远非高效),但希望将其转换为自顶向下或自底向上的解决方案.
问题:我无法想出用于记忆的表格结构.即使我只需输出结果字符串的长度,如何在不实际解决问题的情况下解决它.字符串越来越少,所以如何存储它们?
DP解决方案或Memoization的任何提示都会很棒!
编辑很多人都提出了自上而下的memoization解决方案,请尝试自下而上.
