每天一道leetcode-正则表达式匹配

Given an input string (s) and a pattern (p), implement regular expression matching with support for '.' and '*'.

'.' Matches any single character.
'*' Matches zero or more of the preceding element.
The matching should cover the entire input string (not partial).

Note:

s could be empty and contains only lowercase letters a-z.
p could be empty and contains only lowercase letters a-z, and characters like . or *.

Example 1:

Input:
s = "aa"
p = "a"
Output: false
Explanation: "a" does not match the entire string "aa".

Example 2:

Input:
s = "aa"
p = "a"
Output: true
Explanation: '' means zero or more of the precedeng element, 'a'. Therefore, by repeating 'a' once, it becomes "aa".

Example 3:

Input:
s = "ab"
p = "."
Output: true
Explanation: "." means "zero or more (*) of any character (.)".

Example 4:

Input:
s = "aab"
p = "cab"
Output: true
Explanation: c can be repeated 0 times, a can be repeated 1 time. Therefore it matches "aab".

Example 5:

Input:
s = "mississippi"
p = "misisp*."
Output: false

想法

• 如果不包含* . 一个一个匹配即可
• 如果包含 * 由题目可知要么包含前面的字母多次或者0次，那么就把这个s中的当前字母除掉 继续比较；或者除掉p中前面的那个字母，继续比较，所以用递归

代码

public boolean isMatch(String text, String pattern) {
        if (pattern.isEmpty()) return text.isEmpty();
        boolean first_match = (!text.isEmpty() &&
                               (pattern.charAt(0) == text.charAt(0) || pattern.charAt(0) == '.'));

        if (pattern.length() >= 2 && pattern.charAt(1) == '*'){
            return (isMatch(text, pattern.substring(2)) ||
                    (first_match && isMatch(text.substring(1), pattern)));
        } else {
            return first_match && isMatch(text.substring(1), pattern.substring(1));
        }
    }

非递归形式(采用数组)

public boolean isMatch(String text, String pattern) {
        boolean[][] dp = new boolean[text.length() + 1][pattern.length() + 1];
        dp[text.length()][pattern.length()] = true;

        for (int i = text.length(); i >= 0; i--){
            for (int j = pattern.length() - 1; j >= 0; j--){
                boolean first_match = (i < text.length() &&
                                       (pattern.charAt(j) == text.charAt(i) ||
                                        pattern.charAt(j) == '.'));
                if (j + 1 < pattern.length() && pattern.charAt(j+1) == '*'){
                    dp[i][j] = dp[i][j+2] || first_match && dp[i+1][j];
                } else {
                    dp[i][j] = first_match && dp[i+1][j+1];
                }
            }
        }
        return dp[0][0];
    }
