题意: Given an array of n integers where n > 1, nums, return an array output such that output[i] is equal to the product of all the elements of nums except nums[i].
Solve it without division and in O(n).
For example, given [1,2,3,4], return [24,12,8,6].
Follow up:
Could you solve it with constant space complexity? (Note: The output array does not count as extra space for the purpose of space complexity analysis.)
思路:题目禁止使用除法,所以两遍扫描的解法肯定就不行了,但是可以使用一个数组记录前n项的乘积,再从右向左扫描,把每个数左边的乘积和右边的乘积乘一下,就OK了。
class Solution:
def productExceptSelf(self, nums):
if not nums:
return []
left_product = [1 for i in xrange(len(nums))]
for i in xrange(1, len(nums)):
left_product[i] = left_product[i - 1] * nums[i - 1]
right_product = 1
for i in xrange(len(nums) - 2, -1, -1):
right_product *= nums[i + 1]
left_product[i] = left_product[i] * right_product
return left_product
