leetcode 127. Word Ladder BFS广度优先遍历

Given two words (beginWord and endWord), and a dictionary’s word list, find the length of shortest transformation sequence from beginWord to endWord, such that:

Only one letter can be changed at a time.
Each transformed word must exist in the word list. Note that beginWord is not a transformed word.
For example,

Given:
beginWord = “hit”
endWord = “cog”
wordList = [“hot”,”dot”,”dog”,”lot”,”log”,”cog”]
As one shortest transformation is “hit” -> “hot” -> “dot” -> “dog” -> “cog”,
return its length 5.

Note:
Return 0 if there is no such transformation sequence.
All words have the same length.
All words contain only lowercase alphabetic characters.
You may assume no duplicates in the word list.
You may assume beginWord and endWord are non-empty and are not the same.
UPDATE (2017/1/20):
The wordList parameter had been changed to a list of strings (instead of a set of strings). Please reload the code definition to get the latest changes.

这道题考察的就是最短的改动次数,使用BFS广度优先遍历即可完成,我也是在网上看了一个博主的教程完成的,做法很棒,一看即懂,很值得学习。

建议和这一道题leetcode 433. Minimum Genetic Mutation 和Word Ladder一样BFS + 反向链表 + DFS 和 leetcode 126. Word Ladder II BFS + 反向链表 + DFS 一起学习

还有leetcode 752. Open the Lock 开锁 + 十分典型的广度优先遍历BFS

注意这道题很值得学习BFS。

代码如下:

import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Queue;
import java.util.Set;

下面是C++的做法,就是做一个BFS广度优先遍历,这道真题很值得学习和掌握

代码如下:

#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 

using namespace std;

class Solution 
{
public:
    int ladderLength(string beginWord, string endWord, vector<string>& wordList) 
    {
        set<string> wordSet(wordList.begin(),wordList.end());
        if (wordSet.find(beginWord) != wordSet.end())
            wordSet.erase(beginWord);

        queue<string> que;
        map<string, int> mp;
        int level = 1;
        que.push(beginWord);
        mp[beginWord] = level;
        while (que.empty()==false)
        {
            string now = que.front();
            que.pop();
            int level = mp[now];
            for (int i = 0; i < now.length(); i++)
            {
                string tmp = now;
                for (char j = 'a'; j <= 'z'; j++)
                {
                    tmp[i] = j;
                    if (wordSet.find(tmp) != wordSet.end())
                    {
                        if (tmp == endWord)
                            return level + 1;
                        else
                        {
                            que.push(tmp);
                            wordSet.erase(tmp);
                            mp[tmp] = level + 1;
                        }

                    }
                }
            }
        }
        return 0;
    }
};
