在实现本书的代码时出现了某些模式。我们通常试图包含解决方案的完整代码,但在某些情况下它会非常冗余。
本附录提供了几个最有用的代码块的代码。
本书的所有代码都可以从 CrackingTheCodinglnterview.com 下载。
HashMapList 类本质上是 HashMap <T, Arraylist <E>> 的简写。它允许我们从类型为 T 的项映射到类型为 E 的 Arraylist。
例如,我们可能需要一个从整数映射到字符串列表的数据结构。通常,我们会这样写:
1 HashMap<Integer, Arraylist<String>> maplist =
2 new HashMap<Integer, Arraylist<String>>();
3 for (String s : strings) {
4 int key = computeValue(s);
5 if (!maplist.containsKey(key)) {
6 maplist.put(key, new Arraylist<String>());
7 }
8 maplist.get(key).add(s);
9 }
现在,我们可以这样写:
1 HashMaplist<Integer, String> maplist new HashMapList<Integer, String>();
2 for (String s : strings) {
3 int key = computeValue(s);
4 maplist.put(key, s);
5 }
这不是一个很大的变化,但是它使我们的代码更简单了。
1 public class HashMapList<T, E> {
2 private HashMap<T, Arraylist<E>> map= new HashMap<T, Arraylist<E>>();
3
4 /* Insert item into list at key. */
5 public void put(T key, E item) {
6 if (!map.containsKey(key)) {
7 map.put(key, new Arraylist<E>());
8 }
9 map.get(key).add(item);
10 }
11
12 /* Insert list of items at key. */
13 public void put(T key, Arraylist<E> items) {
14 map.put(key, items);
15 }
16
17 /* Get list of items at key. */
18 public Arraylist<E> get(T key) {
19 return map.get(key);
20 }
21
22 /* Check if hashmaplist contains key. */
23 public boolean containsKey(T key) {
24 return map.containsKey(key);
25 }
26
27 /* Check if list at key contains value. */
28 public boolean containsKeyValue(T key, E value) {
29 Arraylist<E> list = get(key);
30 if (list == null) return false;
31 return list.contains(value);
32 }
33
34 /* Get the list of keys. */
35 public Set<T> keySet() {
36 return map.keySet();
37 }
38
39 @Override
40 public String toString() {
41 return map.toString();
42 }
43 }
虽然在可能的情况下使用内置的二叉树类非常好,甚至很好,但并不总是可行的。在许多问题中,我们需要访问节点或树类的内部(或需要调整这些内部),因此无法使用内置库。
TreeNode 类支持各种各样的功能,但我们并不一定希望每个问题/解决方案都使用这些功能。例如,TreeNode 类跟踪节点的父节点,尽管我们通常不使用它(或特别禁止使用它)。
为了简单起见,我们将此树实现为存储整型数据。
1 public class TreeNode {
2 public int data;
3 public TreeNode left, right, parent;
4 private int size = 0;
5
6 public TreeNode(int d) {
7 data d;
8 size = 1;
9 }
10
11 public void insertinOrder(int d) {
12 if (d <= data) {
13 if (left == null) {
14 setLeftChild(new TreeNode(d));
15 } else {
16 left.insertinOrder(d);
17 }
18 } else {
19 if (right == null) {
20 setRightChild(new TreeNode(d));
21 } else {
22 right.insertlnOrder(d);
23 }
24 }
25 size++;
26 }
27
28 public int size() {
29 return size;
30 }
31
32 public TreeNode find(int d) {
33 if (d == data) {
34 return this;
35 } else if (d <= data) {
36 return left != null? left.find(d) : null;
37 } else if (d > data) {
38 return right != null? right.find(d) : null;
39 }
40 return null;
41 }
42
43 public void setLeftChild(TreeNode left) {
44 this.left = left;
45 if (left != null) {
46 left.parent = this;
47 }
48 }
49
50 public void setRightChild(TreeNode right) {
51 this.right = right;
52 if (right != null) {
53 right.parent = this;
54 }
55 }
56
57 }
该树被实现为二叉搜索树。但是,你可以将它用于其他目的。你只需要使用 setLeftChild
/ setRightChild
方法,或者左右子变量。
因此,我们将这些方法和变量保持为 public
。我们需要这种方式来解决许多问题。
与 TreeNode 类一样,我们经常需要以内置链表类不支持的方式访问链表的内部。出于这个原因,我们实现了自己的类并将其用于许多问题。
1 public class LinkedListNode {
2 public LinkedListNode next, prev, last;
3 public int data;
4 public LinkedlistNode(int d, LinkedlistNode n, LinkedListNode p){
5 data = d;
6 setNext(n);
7 setPrevious(p);
8 }
9
10 public LinkedListNode(int d) {
11 data = d;
12 }
13
14 public LinkedListNode() {}
15
16 public void setNext(LinkedListNode n) {
17 next = n;
18 if (this == last) {
19 last = n;
20 }
21 if (n != null && n.prev != this) {
22 n.setPrevious(this);
23 }
24 }
25
26 public void setPrevious(LinkedListNode p) {
27 prev = p;
28 if (p != null && p.next != this) {
29 p.setNext(this);
30 }
31 }
32
33 public LinkedListNode clone() {
34 LinkedListNode next2 = null;
35 if (next != null) {
36 next2 = next.clone();
37 }
38 LinkedlistNode head2 = new LinkedListNode(data, next2, null);
39 return head2;
40 }
41 }
同样,我们将方法和变量保持为 public
,因为我们经常需要这种访问。这将允许用户“销毁”链表,然而我们实际上需要这种功能来实现我们的目的。
在一些问题中使用了 trie 数据结构,以便更容易地在字典(或有效单词列表)中查找单词是否是任何其他单词的前缀。当我们递归地构造单词时,经常使用这种方法,这样当单词无效时,我们就可以短路。
1 public class Trie {
2 // The root of this trie.
3 private TrieNode root;
4
5 /* Takes a list of strings as an argument, and constructs a trie that stores
6 * these strings. */
7 public Trie(Arraylist<String> list) {
8 root = new TrieNode();
9 for (String word : list) {
10 root.addWord(word);
11 }
12 }
13
14
15 /* Takes a list of strings as an argument, and constructs a trie that stores
16 * these strings. */
17 public Trie(String[] list) {
18 root = new TrieNode();
19 for (String word : list) {
20 root.addWord(word);
21 }
22 }
23
24 /* Checks whether this trie contains a string with the prefix passed in as
25 * argument. */
26 public boolean contains(String prefix, boolean exact) {
27 TrieNode lastNode = root;
28 int i= 0;
29 for (i = 0; i < prefix.length(); i++) {
30 lastNode = lastNode.getChild(prefix.charAt(i));
31 if (lastNode == null) {
32 return false;
33 }
34 }
35 return !exact || lastNode.terminates();
36 }
37
38 public boolean contains(String prefix) {
39 return contains(prefix, false);
40 }
41
42 public TrieNode getRoot() {
43 return root;
44 }
45 }
Trie 类的实现使用了 TrieNode 类,其实现如下。
1 public class TrieNode {
2 /* The children of this node in the trie.*/
3 private HashMap<Character, TrieNode> children;
4 private boolean terminates = false;
5
6 /* The character stored in this node as data.*/
7 private char character;
8
9 /* Constructs an empty trie node and initializes the list of its children to an
10 * empty hash map. Used only to construct the root node of the trie. */
11 public TrieNode() {
12 children= new HashMap<Character, TrieNode>();
13 }
14
15 /* Constructs a trie node and stores this character as the node's value.
16 * Initializes the list of child nodes of this node to an empty hash map. */
17 public TrieNode(char character) {
18 this();
19 this.character = character;
20 }
21
22 /* Returns the character data stored in this node. */
23 public char getChar() {
24 return character;
25 }
26
27 /* Add this word to the trie, and recursively create the child
28 * nodes. */
29 public void addWord(String word) {
30 if (word== null || word.isEmpty()) {
31 return;
32 }
33
34 char firstChar word.charAt(0);
35
36 TrieNode child getChild(firstChar);
37 if (child== null) {
38 child= new TrieNode(firstChar);
39 children.put(firstChar, child);
40 }
41
42 if (word.length() > 1) {
43 child.addWord(word.substring(l));
44 } else {
45 child.setTerminates(true);
46 }
47 }
48
49 /* Find a child node of this node that has the char argument as its data. Return
50 * null if no such child node is present in the trie. */
51 public TrieNode getChild(char c) {
52 return children.get(c);
53 }
54
55 /* Returns whether this node represents the end of a complete word. */
56 public boolean terminates() {
57 return terminates;
58 }
59
60 /* Set whether this node is the end of a complete word.*/
61 public void setTerminates(boolean t) {
62 terminates= t;
63 }
64 }
