LeetCode:Longest Substring Without Repeating Characters
Given a string, find the length of the longest substring without repeating characters.
Examples:
Given
"abcabcbb"
, the answer is"abc"
, which the length is 3.Given
"bbbbb"
, the answer is"b"
, with the length of 1.Given
"pwwkew"
, the answer is"wke"
, with the length of 3. Note that the answer must be a substring,"pwke"
is a subsequence and not a substring.
题目读起来很简单,一开始做的时候也很自信,但是提交了很多次都失败了。
思路:
- 最长不重复子串,暴力方法就是遍历所有的子串,并检查是否有重复的子串,但是这种时间上复杂度很高,被pass
- 用dp[j]来表示子串0-j中最长不重复子串,那么则存在两种状态:
- s[j]在start之后,j前面出现,此时dp[j] = j - start -1 (start 为s[j]之前最后出现的位置)
- s[j]未出现,此时dp[j] = dp[j-1] + 1;
- dp中最大的即为最长的不重复子串。
