算法练习--LeetCode--17. Letter Combinations of a Phone Number: 100%

17. Letter Combinations of a Phone Number

Medium

Given a string containing digits from 2-9 inclusive, return all possible letter combinations that the number could represent.

A mapping of digit to letters (just like on the telephone buttons) is given below. Note that 1 does not map to any letters.

1o-o_ 2abc 3def

4ghi_ 5jkl 6mno

7pqrs 8tuv 9wxyz

*+___ 0___ #↑__

除了0的第一个“”之外的位置的“”是为了对齐

Example:

Input: "23"

Output: ["ad", "ae", "af", "bd", "be", "bf", "cd", "ce", "cf"].

大意是指要把输入的数字按照手机键盘的映射关系转成可能的字符串

• 不要有重复的
• 不用在乎字符串顺序（输出结果数组的排序）

Note:

虽然题目中给出输入数字在[2, 9]，实测(2019-01-05) 0和1也有对应的映射关系

0 => " "
1 => "*"

基本分析：

• 要求长度为n的结果，首先要求长度为n-1的结果！
• n == 1 时候结果是已知的

"0" : [" "],
        "1" : ["*"],
        "2" : ["a", "b", "c"],
        "3" : ["d", "e", "f"],
        "4" : ["g", "h", "i"],
        "5" : ["j", "k", "l"],
        "6" : ["m", "n", "o"],
        "7" : ["p", "q", "r", "s"],
        "8" : ["t", "u", "v"],
        "9" : ["w", "x", "y", "z"]

• 为了节约时间要有缓存

基本思路

---

func letterCombinations(s: String) -> [String] {
  if s 为空字符串， return 空数组
    if cache 不包含 s {
      cache[s] = cache[s的第一个字符] * letterCombinations(s除了第一字符之外剩下的部分的结果)
    }
  return cache[s]
}

代码

// Swift Code
class Solution {
    var cache: [String : [String]] = [
        "0" : [" "],
        "1" : ["*"],
        "2" : ["a", "b", "c"],
        "3" : ["d", "e", "f"],
        "4" : ["g", "h", "i"],
        "5" : ["j", "k", "l"],
        "6" : ["m", "n", "o"],
        "7" : ["p", "q", "r", "s"],
        "8" : ["t", "u", "v"],
        "9" : ["w", "x", "y", "z"]
    ]

    func letterCombinations(_ digits: String) -> [String] {
        if digits.isEmpty { return [] }
        if !cache.keys.contains(digits) {
            cache[digits] = letterCombinations(String(digits.prefix(1))).flatMap({ (s) -> [String] in
                letterCombinations(String(digits.suffix(digits.count - 1))).map { s + $0 }
            })
        }
        return cache[digits]!
    }
}

TestCase

• ""
• "23"
• "203"
• "213"
