Given an absolute path for a file (Unix-style), simplify it.
For example,
path = "/home/"
, => "/home"
path = "/a/./b/../../c/"
, => "/c"
Corner Cases:
- Did you consider the case where path =
"/../"
?
In this case, you should return"/"
. - Another corner case is the path might contain multiple slashes
'/'
together, such as"/home//foo/"
.
In this case, you should ignore redundant slashes and return"/home/foo"
.
public String simplifyPath(String path) {
String[] paths = path.split("\\/+");
Stack<String> stack = new Stack<>();
for(String p:paths) {
if(p.isEmpty() || p.equals(".")) continue;
if(p.equals("..")) {
if(!stack.isEmpty()) stack.pop();
} else {
stack.push(p);
}
}
if(stack.isEmpty()) return "/";
String s = "";
while(!stack.isEmpty()) {
s = "/"+stack.pop()+s;
}
return s;
}
