Given an input string (s
) and a pattern (p
), implement regular expression matching with support for '.'
and '*'
.
'.' Matches any single character. '*' Matches zero or more of the preceding element.
The matching should cover the entire input string (not partial).
Note:
s
could be empty and contains only lowercase lettersa-z
.
p
could be empty and contains only lowercase lettersa-z
, and characters like.
or*
.
public:
bool isMatch(string s, string p)
{
int m = s.length(),n = p.length();
bool dp[m+1][n+1];
dp[0][0] = true;
for (int i = 1; i <= m; i++)
dp[i][0] = false;
for (int j = 1; j <= n; j++)
dp[0][j] = j > 1 && '*' == p[j - 1] && dp[0][j - 2];
for (int i = 1; i <= m; i++)
{
for (int j = 1; j <= n; j++)
{
if (p[j - 1] == '*')
{
dp[i][j] = dp[i][j - 2] || ((s[i - 1] == p[j - 2] || p[j - 2] == '.') && dp[i - 1][j]);
}
else
{
dp[i][j] = (p[j - 1] == '.' || s[i - 1] == p[j - 1]) && dp[i - 1][j - 1];
}

return dp[m][n];
