Given a string s and a string t, check if s is subsequence of t.
You may assume that there is only lower case English letters in both s and t. t is potentially a very long (length ~= 500,000) string, and s is a short string (<=100).
A subsequence of a string is a new string which is formed from the original string by deleting some (can be none) of the characters without disturbing the relative positions of the remaining characters. (ie, "ace"
is a subsequence of "abcde"
while "aec"
is not).
Example 1:
s = "abc"
, t = "ahbgdc"
Return true
.
Example 2:
s = "axc"
, t = "ahbgdc"
Return false
.
Follow up:
If there are lots of incoming S, say S1, S2, ... , Sk where k >= 1B, and you want to check one by one to see if T has its subsequence. In this scenario, how would you change your code?
题目大意:判断 字符串s 是否由 字符串t中的某些字符 ,按照原始的相对顺序构成的。
解题思路:同时遍历s和t,如果字符不相同,则右移t中的遍历下标;如果字符相同,则同时右移s和t中的遍历下标。如果t遍历完,而s还没遍历完,则返回false,否则返回true。代码如下:(11ms,beats 83.94%)
public class Solution {
public boolean isSubsequence(String s, String t) {
char[] ss = s.toCharArray(), tt = t.toCharArray();
int i, j = 0;
for (i = 0; i < ss.length; i++) {
while (j < tt.length && tt[j] != ss[i])
j++;
if (j == tt.length)
return false;
j++;
}
return true;
}
}
