假设我有一个字符串数组,如下所示:

{{"blue", "red"}, {"1", "2", 3"}, {"dog","cat", "fish", "bird"}}

我想打印数组的组合:

蓝色1狗 蓝色1只猫 ...
...
红3鸟

但是我希望锯齿状数组具有用户指定的行和列。如何以动态和迭代的方式创建similar approach?我也在使用数组而不是ArrayList,因为作为初学者,我想在学习ArrayList之前看看我能用数组做些什么。我的代码如下:

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter number of arrays: "); 
int arrays = input.nextInt();
String [][] array = new String[arrays][]; 

for(int i = 0; i < x; i++){
   System.out.print("Enter number of elements for array: ");
   int elements = input.nextInt();
   input.nextLine();
   arrays[i] = new String[elements]; 

   for(int j = 0; j < elements ; j++){ 
      System.out.print("Enter string: ");
      String word = input.nextLine();
      arrays[i][j] = word;
   }
}

这是另一种使用整数索引数组来模拟可变数量的嵌套for循环的方法:

    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.print("Enter number of arrays: ");
    int arrays = input.nextInt();
    String[][] array = new String[arrays][];

    for (int i = 0; i < arrays; i++) {
        System.out.print("Enter number of elements for array #" + i + ": ");
        int elements = input.nextInt();
        input.nextLine();
        array[i] = new String[elements];

        for (int j = 0; j < elements; j++) {
            System.out.print("Enter string: ");
            String word = input.nextLine();
            array[i][j] = word;
        }
    }

    int[] indices = new int[array.length];
    while (indices[0] < array[0].length) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        for (int i = 0; i < indices.length; ++i) {
            if (i > 0) {
                sb.append(' ');
            }
            sb.append(array[i][indices[i]]);
        }
        System.out.println(sb.toString());
        for (int i = indices.length - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
            if (++indices[i] < array[i].length) {
                break;
            }
            if (i != 0) {
                indices[i] = 0;
            }
        }
    }

此答案将打印所有组合,而不使用递归,但如果组合总数超过Long.MAX_VALUE,则会失败。由于印刷许多线条无论如何都不会结束,这不是一个真正的问题。

要按顺序打印组合,请考虑递增的数字,其中数字的每个数字都是相应子列表的索引。

示例(使用问题列表列表):

000: blue 1 dog
001: blue 1 cat
002: blue 1 fish
003: blue 1 bird
010: blue 2 dog
...
121: red 3 cat
122: red 3 fish
123: red 3 bird

每个“数字”在到达相应子列表的末尾时将翻转,例如,最后一个子列表只有4个元素,所以数字从3翻到0。

注意:“数字”的数量可以高于9.想想十六进制来表示那个。

现在,位数也是动态的,即外部列表的大小。使用简单循环执行此操作的一种方法是计算组合的总数(2 * 3 * 4 = 24),然后使用除法和余数计算数字。

示例:

Combination #10 (first combination is #0):
  10 % 4                 = 2 (last digit)
  10 / 4 % 3     = 2 % 3 = 2 (middle digit)
  10 / 4 / 3 % 2 = 0 % 2 = 0 (first digit)
  Digits: 022 = blue 3 fish

为了解决这个问题,我们首先构建一个除数数组,例如: div[] = { 12, 4, 1 },找到组合的总数(24)。

long[] div = new long[array.length];
long total = 1;
for (int i = array.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
    div[i] = total;
    if ((total *= array[i].length) <= 0)
        throw new IllegalStateException("Overflow or empty sublist");
}

现在我们可以遍历组合并打印结果:

for (long combo = 0; combo < total; combo++) {
    for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
        int digit = (int) (combo / div[i] % array[i].length);
        if (i != 0)
            System.out.print(' ');
        System.out.print(array[i][digit]);
    }
    System.out.println();
}

来自问题的输入:

String[][] array = {{"blue", "red"}, {"1", "2", "3"}, {"dog","cat", "fish", "bird"}};

我们得到以下输出:

blue 1 dog
blue 1 cat
blue 1 fish
blue 1 bird
blue 2 dog
blue 2 cat
blue 2 fish
blue 2 bird
blue 3 dog
blue 3 cat
blue 3 fish
blue 3 bird
red 1 dog
red 1 cat
red 1 fish
red 1 bird
red 2 dog
red 2 cat
red 2 fish
red 2 bird
red 3 dog
red 3 cat
red 3 fish
red 3 bird

它可以处理子阵列的任何组合,例如有4个大小为2,3,2和2的子阵列:

String[][] array = {{"small", "large"}, {"black", "tan", "silver"}, {"lazy", "happy"}, {"dog", "cat"}};
small black lazy dog
small black lazy cat
small black happy dog
small black happy cat
small tan lazy dog
small tan lazy cat
small tan happy dog
small tan happy cat
small silver lazy dog
small silver lazy cat
small silver happy dog
small silver happy cat
large black lazy dog
large black lazy cat
large black happy dog
large black happy cat
large tan lazy dog
large tan lazy cat
large tan happy dog
large tan happy cat
large silver lazy dog
large silver lazy cat
large silver happy dog
large silver happy cat

答案 2 :(得分:0)

我的想法如下。假设我们有2-d array

String[][] strings = {{"blue", "red"},
                      {"1", "2", "3"},
                      {"dog", "cat", "bird", "fish"}};

我们可以在数组中生成排列,但包含一些条件。

首先,我们在表格中找到最大行length

int max = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < strings.length; i++) {
    if(max < strings[i].length) {
        max = strings[i].length;
    }
}

然后我们只生成排列

int[] permutations = new int[strings.length];

void permute(int k) {
    for(int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
        permutations[k] = i;
        if(valid(k)) {
            if(k == strings.length - 1) {
                printSolution();
            } else {
                permute(k + 1);
            }
        }
    }
}

valid功能检查位置i上的数字不高于我们表格中length行的ith

boolean valid(int k) {
    for(int i = 0; i < k; i++) {
        if(permutations[i] >= strings[i].length) return false;
    }
    return true;
}

打印解决方法:

void printSolution() {
    for(int i = 0; i < strings.length; i++) {
        System.out.print(strings[i][permutations[i]] + " ");
    }
    System.out.println();
}

结果:

blue 1 dog 
blue 1 cat 
blue 1 bird 
blue 1 fish 
blue 2 dog 
blue 2 cat 
blue 2 bird  
blue 2 fish 
blue 3 dog 
blue 3 cat 
blue 3 bird 
blue 3 fish 
red 1 dog 
red 1 cat 
red 1 bird 
red 1 fish 
red 2 dog 
red 2 cat 
red 2 bird 
red 2 fish 
red 3 dog 
red 3 cat 
red 3 bird 
red 3 fish
