问题描述:
给定两个单词(beginWord 和 endWord)和一个字典 wordList,找出所有从 beginWord 到 endWord 的最短转换序列。转换需遵循如下规则:
- 每次转换只能改变一个字母。
- 转换过程中的中间单词必须是字典中的单词。
说明:
- 如果不存在这样的转换序列,返回一个空列表。
- 所有单词具有相同的长度。
- 所有单词只由小写字母组成。
- 字典中不存在重复的单词。
- 你可以假设 beginWord 和 endWord 是非空的,且二者不相同。
示例 1:
输入: beginWord = "hit", endWord = "cog", wordList = ["hot","dot","dog","lot","log","cog"] 输出: [ ["hit","hot","dot","dog","cog"], ["hit","hot","lot","log","cog"] ]
示例 2:
输入: beginWord = "hit" endWord = "cog" wordList = ["hot","dot","dog","lot","log"] 输出: [] 解释: endWord "cog" 不在字典中,所以不存在符合要求的转换序列。
问题求解:
总体思路是先通过BFS搜索最小步数,并且记录BFS树,之后使用DFS得到路径。这里有个地方需要特别注意的是,在构建BFS树的时候,需要在某一层全部遍历结束后再把下一层的一起加入used中,否则会少掉一些上层到下层的边。
