Group Anagrams
Given an array of strings, group anagrams together.
For example, given: ["eat", "tea", "tan", "ate", "nat", "bat"],
Return:
[
["ate", "eat","tea"],
["nat","tan"],
["bat"]
]
Note: All inputs will be in lower-case.
Tips:
很精彩的做法。把每个String提出来作为char array排序,并将每一种char array都存入map作为key。以后再碰到的时候就在map的value的list里加,最后把map加进result里就行了。如果需要按字典顺序输出,则需要sort map。
Code:
public class Solution {
public List<List<String>> groupAnagrams(String[] strs) {
if(strs==null || strs.length == 0){
return new ArrayList<List<String>>();
}
HashMap<String, List<String>> map = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
for (String s:strs) {
char[] ca = s.toCharArray();
Arrays.sort(ca);
String keyStr = String.valueOf(ca);
if(!map.containsKey(keyStr))
map.put(keyStr, new ArrayList<String>());
map.get(keyStr).add(s);
}
//这段是为了输出时按字典顺序排序,其实可以删除。
for(String key: map.keySet()) {
Collections.sort(map.get(key));
}
return new ArrayList<List<String>>(map.values());
}
}
