leetcode 846. Hand of Straights
题目:
Alice has a hand
of cards, given as an array of integers.
Now she wants to rearrange the cards into groups so that each group is size W
, and consists of W
consecutive cards.
Return true
if and only if she can.
Example 1:
Input: hand = [1,2,3,6,2,3,4,7,8], W = 3
Output: true
Explanation: Alice's hand can be rearranged as [1,2,3],[2,3,4],[6,7,8].
Example 2:
Input: hand = [1,2,3,4,5], W = 4
Output: false
Explanation: Alice's hand can't be rearranged into groups of 4.
Note:
1 <= hand.length <= 10000
0 <= hand[i] <= 10^9
1 <= W <= hand.length
解法:
这个题大致意思是让我们判断能否在给定序列中找到 hand.size() / W
个长度为 W 的连续递增序列。
-
首先,我们可以判断
hand.size() % W
是否成立,因为任意一个不满足 W 个的序列都不满足题意 -
其次,我们就要考虑怎么凑成连续的序列:
-
这里我们可以考虑使用
map
映射的方法,举个例子:-
假如现在序列为
example 1
,也即hand = [1,2,3,6,2,3,4,7,8]
,那么- map[1] = 1;
- map[2] = 2;
- map[3] = 2;
- map[4] = 1;
- map[6] = 1;
- map[7] = 1;
- map[8] = 1;
-
我们现在可以这么思考,如果序列连续,那么任意一个开始点
start
往后数W-1
个连续数字的map
值一定满足:
m a p [ s t a r t + W − 1 ] > = m a p [ s t a r t + W − 2 ] > = . . . . . . m a p [ s t a r t ] map[start + W - 1] >= map[start + W - 2] >= ...... map[start] map[start+W−1]>=map[start+W−2]>=......map[start] -
且每一次我们处理完相应的序列之后,都要让的
map[start]
之前的map[start + W - N]
的值减去map[start]
,这表明我们已经访问过某个序列。如果在处理过程中有某个map[start + W - N] < 0
,那证明序列出现了中断,也就不满足题意。

代码:
class Solution {
public:
bool isNStraightHand(vector<int>& hand, int W) {
int len = hand.size();
if(len%W != 0)
return false;
sort(hand.begin(), hand.end());
map<int, int> cnt;
for(auto h:hand)
cnt[h]++;
for(auto it:cnt){
if(it.second > 0){
for(int i=W-1; i>=0; i--){
cnt[it.first+i] -= cnt[it.first];
if(cnt[it.first+i] < 0)
return false;
}
}
}
return true;
}
};
