Design an algorithm to encode a list of strings to a string. The encoded string is then sent over the network and is decoded back to the original list of strings.
Machine 1 (sender) has the function:
string encode(vectorstrs) { // ... your code return encoded_string; }
Machine 2 (receiver) has the function:
vectordecode(string s) { //... your code return strs; }
So Machine 1 does:
string encoded_string = encode(strs);
and Machine 2 does:
vectorstrs2 = decode(encoded_string);
strs2 in Machine 2 should be the same as strs in Machine 1.
Implement the encode and decode methods.
Note:
- The string may contain any possible characters out of 256 valid ascii characters. Your algorithm should be generalized enough to work on any possible characters.
- Do not use class member/global/static variables to store states. Your encode and decode algorithms should be stateless.
- Do not rely on any library method such as
evalor serialize methods. You should implement your own encode/decode algorithm.
给字符加码再解码，先有码再无码，题目没有限制加码的方法，那么只要能成功的把有码变成无码就行了，具体变换方法自己设计。
Java:
public String encode(List strs) {
StringBuffer out = new StringBuffer();
for (String s : strs)
out.append(s.replace("#", "##")).append(" # ");
return out.toString();
}
public List decode(String s) {
List strs = new ArrayList();
String[] array = s.split(" # ", -1);
for (int i=0; i Java: with streaming
public String encode(List strs) {
return strs.stream()
.map(s -> s.replace("#", "##") + " # ")
.collect(Collectors.joining());
}
public List decode(String s) {
List strs = Stream.of(s.split(" # ", -1))
.map(t -> t.replace("##", "#"))
.collect(Collectors.toList());
strs.remove(strs.size() - 1);
return strs;
} Java:
// Encodes a list of strings to a single string.
public String encode(List strs) {
StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();
for(String str : strs){
// 对于每个子串，先把其长度放在前面，用#隔开
output.append(String.valueOf(str.length())+"#");
// 再把子串本身放在后面
output.append(str);
}
return output.toString();
}
// Decodes a single string to a list of strings.
public List decode(String s) {
List res = new LinkedList();
int start = 0;
while(start < s.length()){
// 找到从start开始的第一个#，这个#前面是长度
int idx = s.indexOf('#', start);
int size = Integer.parseInt(s.substring(start, idx));
// 根据这个长度截取子串
res.add(s.substring(idx + 1, idx + size + 1));
// 更新start为子串后面一个位置
start = idx + size + 1;
}
return res;
}
Java: better
public String encode(List strs) {
StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer();
if(strs == null || strs.size() == 0)
return result.toString();
for(String str: strs){
result.append(str.length());
result.append("#");
result.append(str);
}
return result.toString();
}
// Decodes a single string to a list of strings.
public List decode(String s) {
List result = new ArrayList();
if(s == null || s.length() == 0)
return result;
int current = 0;
while(true){
if(current == s.length())
break;
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
while(s.charAt(current) != '#'){
sb.append(s.charAt(current));
current++;
}
int len = Integer.parseInt(sb.toString());
int end = current + 1 + len;
result.add(s.substring(current+1, end));
current = end;
}
return result;
