给定N个球成一条线。每个球的初始方向由字符串表示,分别由左右方向的“ L”和“ R”组成。假设在碰撞后两个球都反转了方向,并且碰撞前后的速度将保持不变。计算发生的碰撞总数。
例子:
Input: str = "RRLL"
Output: 4
Explanation
After first collision: RLRL
After second collision: LRRL
After third collision: LRLR
After fourth collision: LLRR
Input: str = "RRLR"
Output: 2
Explanation
After first collision: RLRR
After second collision: LRRR
方法:
在每个阶段,我们必须找到子字符串“ RL”的编号,将子字符串“ RL”更改为“ LR”,并再次计算结果字符串的子字符串“ RL”的编号,然后重复以下操作,直到没有其他子字符串“ RL”可用。我们不会在每个阶段都计算子字符串“ RL”的数量,因为它将消耗大量时间。这样做的另一种方法是,观察在每个阶段看到的结果字符串–>“ RRLL”->“ RLRL”->“ LRLR”->“ LLRR”。
初始字符串为“ RRLL”。让我们有一个方向为L的第三个球。现在观察该L向字符串的左侧移动。当我们将“ RL”交换为“ LR”时,我们将L移向整个字符串的左侧。现在类似地,如果我们继续进行交换,则该L将面对该字符串左侧存在的每个R,因此再次形成“ RL”。因此,对于此L,“ RL”的总编号将是该特定L左侧存在的R的总编号。我们将对每个L重复此操作。因此,通常,为了计算所有可能的值在每个阶段的子字符串“ RL”中,我们将计算每个L左侧存在的R的总数,因为这些R和L将在每个阶段形成“ RL”,这可以线性时间复杂度完成。
下面是上述方法的实现:
C++
// C++ implementation to Find total
// no of collisions taking place between
// the balls in which initial direction
// of each ball is given
#include
using namespace std;
// Function to count no of collision
int count(string s)
{
int N, i, cnt = 0, ans = 0;
// length of the string
N = s.length();
for (i = 0; i < N; i++) {
if (s[i] == 'R')
cnt++;
if (s[i] == 'L')
ans += cnt;
}
return ans;
}
// Driver code
int main()
{
string s = "RRLL";
cout << count(s) << endl;
return 0;
}
