Given a pattern
and a string str
, find if str
follows the same pattern.
Here follow means a full match, such that there is a bijection between a letter in pattern
and a non-empty word in str
.
Examples:
- pattern =
"abba"
, str ="dog cat cat dog"
should return true. - pattern =
"abba"
, str ="dog cat cat fish"
should return false. - pattern =
"aaaa"
, str ="dog cat cat dog"
should return false. - pattern =
"abba"
, str ="dog dog dog dog"
should return false.
Notes:
You may assume pattern
contains only lowercase letters, and str
contains lowercase letters separated by a single space.
public class Solution {
public bool WordPattern(string pattern, string str) {
string[] strArr = str.Split(' ');
if (pattern.Length != strArr.Length || (pattern.Length == 0 && str.Length == 0)) {
return false;
}
Dictionary<char, string> dict = new Dictionary<char, string>();
for (var i = 0; i < pattern.Length; i++) {
if (dict.ContainsKey(pattern[i]) || dict.ContainsValue(strArr[i])) {
string s = null;
dict.TryGetValue(pattern[i], out s);
if (s == strArr[i]) {
continue;
} else {
return false;
}
} else {
dict[pattern[i]] = strArr[i];
}
}
return true;
}
