【leetcode刷题笔记】Letter Combinations of a Phone Number

Given a digit string, return all possible letter combinations that the number could represent.

A mapping of digit to letters (just like on the telephone buttons) is given below.

Input:Digit string "23"
Output: ["ad", "ae", "af", "bd", "be", "bf", "cd", "ce", "cf"].

Note:
Although the above answer is in lexicographical order, your answer could be in any order you want.

题解：用一个二维数组map保存数字到字母的映射，然后深度优先递归搜索如下的一棵树（以"23"为例，树不完整）

代码如下：

public class Solution {
    public List<String> letterCombinations(String digits) {
        ArrayList<String> answer = new ArrayList<String>();
        
        char[][] map = {{'a','b','c'},{'d','e','f'},{'g','h','i'},{'j','k','l'},{'m','n','o'},{'p','q','r','s'},{'t','u','v'},{'w','x','y','z'}};
        String currentPath = new String();
        
        DeepSearch(map, answer, digits, currentPath);
        return answer;
    }
    
    public void DeepSearch(char[][] map,List<String> answer,String digits,String currentPath){
        if(digits.length() == 0)
        {
            String temp = new String(currentPath);
            answer.add(temp);

            return;
        }
        
        int now = digits.charAt(0) - '0';
        for(int j = 0;j < map[now-2].length;j++){
            currentPath += map[now-2][j];
            DeepSearch(map, answer, digits.substring(1), currentPath);
            currentPath = currentPath.substring(0, currentPath.length()-1);
        }
    }
}
