题目:
Suppose Andy and Doris want to choose a restaurant for dinner, and they both have a list of favorite restaurants represented by strings.
You need to help them find out their common interest with the least list index sum. If there is a choice tie between answers, output all of them with no order requirement. You could assume there always exists an answer.
Example 1:
Input: ["Shogun", "Tapioca Express", "Burger King", "KFC"] ["Piatti", "The Grill at Torrey Pines", "Hungry Hunter Steakhouse", "Shogun"] Output: ["Shogun"] Explanation: The only restaurant they both like is "Shogun".
Example 2:
Input: ["Shogun", "Tapioca Express", "Burger King", "KFC"] ["KFC", "Shogun", "Burger King"] Output: ["Shogun"] Explanation: The restaurant they both like and have the least index sum is "Shogun" with index sum 1 (0+1).
Note:
- The length of both lists will be in the range of [1, 1000].
- The length of strings in both lists will be in the range of [1, 30].
- The index is starting from 0 to the list length minus 1.
- No duplicates in both lists.
题意是:给两个字符串的列表,要求找出这两个列表中序号和最小的公共项,假如有多个答案,就全部输出。
解决思路就是挨个找,枚举list1中的每一个,假如list2中也有,就和当前最小序的和比较,若更小,就清空答案列表,更新最小序的和,若相等,就把这个字符串也加入到要返回的答案中,没用优化,居然给过了。。。

class Solution(object):
def findRestaurant(self, list1, list2):
min = 9999999
ans = []
for str in list1:
if str in list2:
if list1.index(str) + list2.index(str) < min:
min = list1.index(str) + list2.index(str)
ans = []
ans.append(str)
elif list1.index(str) + list2.index(str) == min:
ans.append(str)
return ans
