LeetCode 419. Battleships in a Board
题目描述:
Given an 2D board, count how many different battleships are in it. The battleships are represented with
'X's, empty slots are represented with'.'s. You may assume the following rules:
- You receive a valid board, made of only battleships or empty slots.
- Battleships can only be placed horizontally or vertically. In other words, they can only be made of the shape
1xN(1 row, N columns) orNx1(N rows, 1 column), where N can be of any size.- At least one horizontal or vertical cell separates between two battleships - there are no adjacent battleships.
Example:
1
2
3
4 X..X
...X
...XIn the above board there are 2 battleships.
Invalid Example:
1
2
3
4 ...X
XXXX
...XThis is an invalid board that you will not receive - as battleships will always have a cell separating between them.
Follow up: Could you do it in one-pass, using only O(1) extra memory and without modifying the value of the board?
这道题题目中举的invalid的例子是不会作为输入数据的, 所以不需要对它进行判断. 最直接的方法就是遍历数组, 然后~~找舰娘(雾)/老婆(大雾)~~在遇到一个X的时候计数器加1, 并把与它相邻接的所有X清除以防止重复计算.
但是Follow up中是要求不修改原数组的. 对于横向的战舰只要直接跳过就可以了, 因为一般都是按行=>列的方式来遍历. 而对于纵向的战舰, 则要判断它上方是否有X, 如果有的话说明这艘战舰已经计算过了, 不应该重复计算.
