To store English words, one method is to use linked lists and store a word letter by letter. To save some space, we may let the words share the same sublist if they share the same suffix. For example, loading
and being
are stored as showed in Figure 1.
Figure 1
You are supposed to find the starting position of the common suffix (e.g. the position of i
in Figure 1).
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case. For each case, the first line contains two addresses of nodes and a positive N (≤105), where the two addresses are the addresses of the first nodes of the two words, and N is the total number of nodes. The address of a node is a 5-digit positive integer, and NULL is represented by −1.
Then N lines follow, each describes a node in the format:
Address Data Next
whereAddress
is the position of the node, Data
is the letter contained by this node which is an English letter chosen from { a-z, A-Z }, and Next
is the position of the next node.
Output Specification:
For each case, simply output the 5-digit starting position of the common suffix. If the two words have no common suffix, output -1
instead.
Sample Input 1:
11111 22222 9
67890 i 00002
00010 a 12345
00003 g -1
12345 D 67890
00002 n 00003
22222 B 23456
11111 L 00001
23456 e 67890
00001 o 00010
Sample Output 1:
67890
Sample Input 2:
00001 00002 4
00001 a 10001
10001 s -1
00002 a 10002
10002 t -1
Sample Output 2:
-1
思路:
1、这次我参考网上的代码没有使用map,而是使用结构体数组。不同之处在于,我没有使用visit这个变量,而是在遍历第一个链表的时候
把地址放在了set中,遍历第二个链表的时候在set中查找地址,如果有直接输出,没有的话则输出-1.当然时间复杂度会大一点,但是略微好
思考一点,还好这次通过了。
