[leetcode] Maximum Product of Word Lengths
题目:
Given a string array words, find the maximum value of length(word[i]) * length(word[j]) where the two words do not share common letters. You may assume that each word will contain only lower case letters. If no such two words exist, return 0. Example 1: Given ["abcw", "baz", "foo", "bar", "xtfn", "abcdef"] Return 16 The two words can be "abcw", "xtfn". Example 2: Given ["a", "ab", "abc", "d", "cd", "bcd", "abcd"] Return 4 The two words can be "ab", "cd". Example 3: Given ["a", "aa", "aaa", "aaaa"] Return 0 No such pair of words.
分析:使用位操作,让字符 'a' 位于最低位(第1位),字符 'b' 位于第2位,...,字符 'z' 位于第26位,
比如:
"a" -> 1
"ab" -> 11
"c" -> 100
"dc" -> 1100
"abcd" -> 1111
实现这个操作的代码为:
int val = 0; String str = "ad"; for(char ch : str.toCharArray()) { val |= (1 << (ch - 'a')); } System.out.println(Integer.toBinaryString(val));
比如,str1进行上述操作后,变为val1;str2进行上述操作后,变为val2,这时如果要判断str1和str2是否含有相同的字母,只需执行:
(val1 & val2) == 0
如果结果为0,则不含有相同字母,反之,则含有。
综上所述,该题的代码如下:
public int maxProduct(String[] words) { int max = 0; int[] bytes = new int[words.length]; for(int i = 0; i < words.length; i++){ int val = 0; for(char ch : words[i].toCharArray()) { val |= (1 << (ch - 'a')); } bytes[i] = val; } for(int i= 0; i < bytes.length; i++) { for(int j = i + 1; j < bytes.length; j++) { if((bytes[i] & bytes[j]) == 0) { max = Math.max(max, words[i].length() * words[j].length()); } } } return max; }
