[leetcode]Word Ladder II
题目:
Given two words (start and end), and a dictionary, find all shortest transformation sequence(s) from start to end, such that:
- Only one letter can be changed at a time
- Each intermediate word must exist in the dictionary
For example,
Given:
start = "hit"
end = "cog"
dict = ["hot","dot","dog","lot","log"]
Return
[ ["hit","hot","dot","dog","cog"], ["hit","hot","lot","log","cog"] ]
Note:
- All words have the same length.
- All words contain only lowercase alphabetic characters.
DFS:
class Solution { private: vector<vector<string> > pathes; map<string,int> travesed; //创建一个map用来记录已经访问过的节点 private: bool canBeChanged(string str1, string str2){ int eq = 0; int i; int ls1 = str1.size(); int ls2 = str2.size(); if(ls1 != ls2)return false; for(i = 0; i < str1.size(); i++){ if(str1[i] != str2[i])eq++; } if(eq == 1)return true; return false; } void BFS(queue<string>& breath, vector<string>& tmp, unordered_set<string> &dict, string end, int level){ if(breath.empty() == false){ string cur = breath.front(); breath.pop(); tmp.push_back(cur); if(canBeChanged(cur,end)){ //找到一条 tmp.push_back(end); pathes.push_back(tmp); //回溯 tmp.pop_back(); return; } for(const string& x:dict){ map<string, int>::iterator it; it = travesed.find(x); if(it == travesed.end() || travesed[x] == 0){ if(canBeChanged(cur,x)){ travesed[x] = 1; breath.push(x); BFS(breath, tmp, dict, end, level+1); //回溯 travesed[x] = 0; tmp.pop_back(); } } } } } public: //bfs vector<vector<string>> findLadders(string start, string end, unordered_set<string> &dict) { queue<string> breath; breath.push(start); vector<string> tmp; travesed[start] = 1; BFS(breath, tmp, dict, end, 0); vector<vector<string>> res; vector<vector<string>>::iterator it1; int max = INT_MAX; for(it1 = pathes.begin(); it1 != pathes.end(); it1++){ if(max > it1->size()){ max = it1->size(); } } for(it1 = pathes.begin(); it1 != pathes.end(); it1++){ if(max == it1->size()){ res.push_back(*it1); } } return res; } };
不过超时了。因为每一次递归都遍历了整个dic。之所以用递归,是因为在遍历的同时要记录路径,想办法不用递归也能记录路径,应该能解决这个问题。
