Description:
Given a string of numbers and operators, return all possible results from computing all the different possible ways to group numbers and operators. The valid operators are+
, -
and *
.
Example 1
Input: "2-1-1"
.
((2-1)-1) = 0
(2-(1-1)) = 2
Output: [0, 2]
Example 2
Input: "
2*3-4*5
"
(2*(3-(4*5))) = -34
((2*3)-(4*5)) = -14
((2*(3-4))*5) = -10
(2*((3-4)*5)) = -10
(((2*3)-4)*5) = 10
Output: [-34, -14, -10, -10, 10]

使用分治递归的方法首先将问题划分成子问题,再对子问题的解进行全排列合并,最终得到问题的解。
深刻理解递归还是很有必要的。
public class Solution { public List<Integer> diffWaysToCompute(String input) { List<Integer> resList = new ArrayList<Integer>(); for(int i=0; i<input.length(); i++) { char op = input.charAt(i); if(op == '+' || op == '-' || op == '*') { List<Integer> leftList = diffWaysToCompute(input.substring(0, i)); List<Integer> rightList = diffWaysToCompute(input.substring(i+1)); for(int left : leftList) { for(int right : rightList) { if(op == '+') { resList.add(left + right); } else if(op == '-') { resList.add(left - right); } else { resList.add(left * right); } } } } } if(resList.size() == 0) { resList.add(Integer.parseInt(input)); } return resList; } }
这题竟然没有不是个位数的case。
