535. Encode and Decode TinyURL刷题笔记

这是关于编解码的问题。没有什么好的思路，除了com可以缩写。
看了一下，它用字典
参考了这个解题方法

class Codec:
    
    def __init__(self):
        self.long2short = {}
        self.short2long = {}
        self.alphabet = string.ascii_letters + '0123456789'

    def encode(self, longUrl: str) -> str:
        """Encodes a URL to a shortened URL.
        """
        while longUrl not in self.long2short:
            short = ''.join(random.choice(self.alphabet) for _ in range(6))
            if short not in self.short2long:
                self.long2short[longUrl] = short
                self.short2long[short] = longUrl
        return 'http://tinyurl.com/'+self.long2short[longUrl]
            

    def decode(self, shortUrl: str) -> str:
        """Decodes a shortened URL to its original URL.
        """
        return self.short2long[shortUrl[-6:]]

# Your Codec object will be instantiated and called as such:
# codec = Codec()
# codec.decode(codec.encode(url))
