LeetCode-71 Simplify Path

Description

Given an absolute path for a file (Unix-style), simplify it. Or in other words, convert it to the canonical path.

In a UNIX-style file system, a period . refers to the current directory. Furthermore, a double period . .moves the directory up a level.

Note that the returned canonical path must always begin with a slash /, and there must be only a single slash / between two directory names. The last directory name (if it exists) must not end with a trailing /. Also, the canonical path must be the shortest string representing the absolute path.

Example

Example 1:
Input: “/home/”
Output: “/home”
Explanation: Note that there is no trailing slash after the last directory name.

Example 2:
Input: “/…/”
Output: “/”
Explanation: Going one level up from the root directory is a no-op, as the root level is the highest level you can go.

Example 3:
Input: “/home//foo/”
Output: “/home/foo”
Explanation: In the canonical path, multiple consecutive slashes are replaced by a single one.

Example 4:
Input: “/a/./b/…/…/c/”
Output: “/c”

Example 5:
Input: “/a/…/…/b/…/c//.//”
Output: “/c”

Example 6:
Input: “/a//bc/d//././/…”
Output: “/a/b/c”

首先简化绝对路径的解题思路是首先定义一个结果列表，然后以’/‘将路径进行分割，进行遍历，如果为空或者为’.‘或者路径结果集为空且为’. .’,则不执行任何操作。如果路径结果集不为空且为’. .’，则进行移除操作。否则将路径添加到路径结果列表中。遍历完成后返回以’/'连接的结果列表即可。、
实现代码如下：

class Solution:
    def simplifyPath(self, path: str) -> str:
        res = []
        for i in path.split('/'):
            if i == '' or i == '.' or (i == '..' and not res):
                continue
            if i == '..':
                res.pop()
            else:
                res.append(i)
        return '/'+'/'.join(res)

后发现python自带os.path 模块，主要用于获取文件的属性。可直接利用os.path.abspath(path)方法返回绝对路径。
实现代码如下:

import os
class Solution:
    def simplifyPath(self, path: str) -> str:
        return os.path.abspath(path)
