摘要: 有个enum叫做Color {Red, White, Blue}, 一个神奇的method叫Color getColor(int)能把int value对应到Color上. 然后给一个int array, 要求sort the array to theorder Red, White then Blue. 只能用constant memory. 如果两个数字都对应一种颜色,这两个数字随便怎么排. 此题我觉得是整个面试中最tricky的一道了吧. 提示是如果只有两种颜色如何sort.updated:以前看到这道题,完全没有想法。今天又看到它,觉得本质上,这是一个类似dutch flag part 阅读全文

摘要: Given a number,find the next higher number using the same digits in the number.Eg- 15432, Soln- 21345.A:1. 从右向左扫描数字,找到a[i]>a[i - 1], 记此时的i为flag;2. v = a[i - 1],然后从i开始向后扫描,找到Min(a[j] > v), i <= j <=n-1的值,将之与a[i - 1]交换3. 然后对从 i 到 (n-1) (即i后面的所有数字)按从小到大的顺序排序,即生成目标数 阅读全文

摘要: Let's say you have a phrase without any spaces - eg. "thisisawesome". Given a dictionary, how would you add spaces in this string?我的理解是:把这个字符串用空格拆成字符 "this" "is" "awesome",这三个字符应该都能够在字典里面找到。比如,还可以这样拆"thisi" "saw" "esome", 这里我假 阅读全文
