LeetCode-Unique Word Abbreviation
An abbreviation of a word follows the form <first letter><number><last letter>. Below are some examples of word abbreviations:
a) it --> it (no abbreviation) 1 b) d|o|g --> d1g 1 1 1 1---5----0----5--8 c) i|nternationalizatio|n --> i18n 1 1---5----0 d) l|ocalizatio|n --> l10n
Assume you have a dictionary and given a word, find whether its abbreviation is unique in the dictionary. A word's abbreviation is unique if no other word from the dictionary has the same abbreviation.
Example:
Given dictionary = [ "deer", "door", "cake", "card" ] isUnique("dear") ->false
isUnique("cart") ->true
isUnique("cane") ->false
isUnique("make") ->true
Solution:
1 public class ValidWordAbbr { 2 Map<String, String> abbrMap; 3 4 public ValidWordAbbr(String[] dictionary) { 5 abbrMap = new HashMap<String, String>(); 6 7 for (String word : dictionary) { 8 String abbr = getAbbr(word); 9 // the abbr is invalid, if it exsits and the corresponding word is not current word. 10 if (abbrMap.containsKey(abbr) && !abbrMap.get(abbr).equals(word)) { 11 abbrMap.put(abbr, ""); 12 } else { 13 abbrMap.put(abbr, word); 14 } 15 } 16 } 17 18 public boolean isUnique(String word) { 19 String abbr = getAbbr(word); 20 // true, if @abbr does not exsit or the corresponding word is the @word. 21 return (!abbrMap.containsKey(abbr)) || (abbrMap.containsKey(abbr) && abbrMap.get(abbr).equals(word)); 22 } 23 24 public String getAbbr(String word){ 25 if (word.length()<=2) return word; 26 27 StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(); 28 builder.append(word.charAt(0)); 29 builder.append(word.length()-2); 30 builder.append(word.charAt(word.length()-1)); 31 32 return builder.toString(); 33 } 34 } 35 36 // Your ValidWordAbbr object will be instantiated and called as such: 37 // ValidWordAbbr vwa = new ValidWordAbbr(dictionary); 38 // vwa.isUnique("Word"); 39 // vwa.isUnique("anotherWord");
