题目描述:(minimum swaps)
Given a sequence, we have to find the minimum no of swaps required to sort the sequence.
分析:
formula: no. of elements out of place - "cycles" in the sequence
A cycle is a set of elements, each of which is in the place of another. So in example sequences { 2, 1, 4, 3}, there are two cycles: {1, 2} and {3, 4}. 1 is in the place where 2 needs to go, and 2 is in the place where 1 needs to go 1, so they are a cycle; likewise with 3 and 4.
The sequences {3, 2, 1, 5, 6, 8, 4, 7 }also has two cycles: 3 is in the place of 1 which is in the place of 3, so {1, 3} is a cycle; 2 is in its proper place; and 4 is in the place of 7 which is in the place of 8 in place of 6 in place of 5 in place of 4, so {4, 7, 8, 6, 5} is a cycle. There are seven elements out of place in two cycles, so five swaps are needed.
实现:
e.g. { 2, 3, 1, 5, 6, 4}
231564 -> 6 mismatch
two cycles -> 123 and 456
swap 1,2 then 2,3, then 4,5 then 5,6 -> 4 swaps to sort
Probably the easiest algorithm would be to use a bitarray. Initialize it to 0, then start at the first 0. Swap the number there to the right place and put a 1 there. Continue until the current place holds the right number. Then move on to the next 0
Example:
231564
000000
-> swap 2,3
321564
010000
-> swap 3,1
123564
111000
-> continue at next 0; swap 5,6
123654
111010
-> swap 6,4
123456
111111
-> bitarray is all 1's, so we're done.
