递归地将每隔一个元素移动到列表的后面

我正在寻找一种以特定方式改变数字列表的方法。

shuffle([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12])应该返回[1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 2, 6, 10, 4, 12, 8]

递归将是这样的:

[1,3,5,7,9,11] with remainder [2,4,6,8,10,12]
[2,6,10] with remainder [4,8,12]
[4,12] with remainder [8]

然后添加结果列表并返回想要的答案。

我当前的代码看起来像这样。我如何调整它以便它产生我上面解释的递归类型?模式为shuffle(+,?)

shuffle([], _).
shuffle(List, Shuffled) :- r(List, Shuffled).
r([], []).
r([X], [X]):- !.
r([X,A|Xs], [X|Ys]) :- r(Xs, Ys).

首先,一个完成一半工作的谓词:重新排序列表,以便挑选出每一个元素并附加到后面,保持顺序:

untangle([], []).
untangle([X|Xs], [X|Ys]) :-
    untangle_1([X|Xs], [X|Ys], Bs, Bs).

% The rest of the Untangled is the list at the back;
% the list at the back is now empty
untangle_1([], Back, Back, []).
% Keep elements in odd positions at the front
untangle_1([X|Xs], [X|Untangled], Back, Bs) :-
    untangle_2(Xs, Untangled, Back, Bs).

% Same as above
untangle_2([], Back, Back, []).
% Move elements in even positions to the back
untangle_2([X|Xs], Untangled, Back, [X|Bs]) :-
    untangle_1(Xs, Untangled, Back, Bs).

这与interwine/3定义的in this answer非常相似。而不是使用两个列表来解压缩"解压缩"元素,它将它们放在同一列表的前面和后面。

现在你需要的是将随后附加到背面的元素洗牌:

shuffle([], []).
shuffle([X|Xs], Shuffled) :-
    untangle_1([X|Xs], Shuffled, Back, Bs),
    shuffle(Bs, Back).

我理解正确吗?

?- shuffle([a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z], S), write(S).
[a,c,e,g,i,k,m,o,q,s,u,w,y,b,f,j,n,r,v,z,d,l,t,h,x,p]
S = [a, c, e, g, i, k, m, o, q|...].

您还会注意到此shuffle/2适用于shuffle(+List, -Shuffled)shuffle(-List, +Shuffled)shuffle(?List, ?Shuffled)模式。据我所知,它在语义上(实现上几乎完全相同)与false的解决方案相同。

以下是使用DCG的版本:

eo([], Ys,Ys) -->
   [].
eo([X|Xs], [X|Ys0],Ys) -->
   eo2(Xs, Ys0,Ys).

eo2([], Ys,Ys) -->
   [].
eo2([X|Xs], Ys0,Ys) -->
   [X],
   eo(Xs, Ys0,Ys).

list_shuffled(Xs, Ys0) :-
    phrase(eo(Xs, Ys0,Ys),Ys). 

以下是显示所有可能用途的最常见查询:

?- list_shuffled(Xs,Ys), numbervars(Xs+Ys,0,_).
Xs = Ys, Ys = [] ;
Xs = Ys, Ys = [A] ;
Xs = Ys, Ys = [A, B] ;
Xs = [A, B, C],
Ys = [A, C, B] ;
Xs = [A, B, C, D],
Ys = [A, C, B, D] ;
Xs = [A, B, C, D, E],
Ys = [A, C, E, B, D] ;
Xs = [A, B, C, D, E, F],
Ys = [A, C, E, B, D, F] ;
Xs = [A, B, C, D, E, F, G],
Ys = [A, C, E, G, B, D, F] ...

这是使用append

的另一个有点透明的解决方案
shuffle([], []).
shuffle([X|T], Shuffled) :-
    unzip([X|T], Odd, Even),
    shuffle(Even, EvenShuffled),
    append(Odd, EvenShuffled, Shuffled).

% Split a list into odd and even elements
unzip([], [], []).
unzip([X], [X], []).
unzip([X,Y|T], [X|Tx], [Y|Ty]) :-
    unzip(T, Tx, Ty).

为了记录,我更喜欢鲍里斯'和错误的解决方案(两者都是+1)因为两者都更有效。 :)
