409. Longest Palindrome
package LeetCode_409 /** * 409. Longest Palindrome * https://leetcode.com/problems/longest-palindrome/ * * Given a string s which consists of lowercase or uppercase letters, * return the length of the longest palindrome that can be built with those letters. Letters are case sensitive, for example, "Aa" is not considered a palindrome here. Example 1: Input: s = "abccccdd" Output: 7 Explanation: One longest palindrome that can be built is "dccaccd", whose length is 7. Example 2: Input: s = "a" Output: 1 Example 3: Input: s = "bb" Output: 2 Constraints: 1. 1 <= s.length <= 2000 2. s consits of lower-case and/or upper-case English letters only. * */ class Solution { /* * solution: array, calculate the odd count, Time complexity:O(n), Space complexity:O(128) * */ fun longestPalindrome(s: String): Int { val array = IntArray(128) //'a': ascii is 97 //'A': ascii is 65 for (c in s) { if (c - 'a' >= 97) { //a..z array[c - 'a']++ } else { //A..Z array[c - 'A']++ } } //scan array, calculate the odd count var oddCount = 0 for (i in array.indices) { if (array[i] % 2 != 0) { oddCount++ } } if (oddCount > 1) { /* * for example: abccccdd, a,b the number of occurrence time is odd, so we can build these string: * dccaccd or dccbccd, both length are 7 * */ return s.length - oddCount + 1 } else { //here main all char can use to build return s.length } } }
