Immediate Decodability |
An encoding of a set of symbols is said to be immediately decodable if no code for one symbol is the prefix of a code for another symbol. We will assume for this problem that all codes are in binary, that no two codes within a set of codes are the same, that each code has at least one bit and no more than ten bits, and that each set has at least two codes and no more than eight.
Examples: Assume an alphabet that has symbols {A, B, C, D}
The following code is immediately decodable:
A:01 B:10 C:0010 D:0000
but this one is not:
A:01 B:10 C:010 D:0000
(Note that A is a prefix of C)
The Sample Input describes the examples above.
01 10 0010 0000 9 01 10 010 0000 9
Set 1 is immediately decodable Set 2 is not immediately decodable题目大意:判断所给的字符串中有无前缀。
解题思路:将所给字符串用sort函数按长度排序,然后二重循环逐一判断。(注意长字符串不能做短字符串的前缀)
#include<iostream> #include<string.h> #include<algorithm> using namespace std; #define N 101 #define M 50 struct T{ char str[M]; }; int cmp(const T &a, const T &b) { return strlen(a.str) < strlen(b.str); } int main() { T tem[N]; int cnt = 0; int t = 1; int bo = 0; while(cin >> tem[cnt].str) { if (strcmp(tem[cnt++].str, "9")) continue; sort(tem, tem + cnt, cmp); for (int i = 0; i < cnt; i++) { int k = strlen(tem[i].str); for (int j = i + 1; j < cnt; j++) { if (strncmp(tem[i].str, tem[j].str, k) == 0) { bo = 1; break; } } if (bo) break; } if (bo) cout << "Set " << t++ << " is not immediately decodable" << endl; else cout << "Set " << t++ << " is immediately decodable" << endl; // Init. memset(tem, 0, sizeof(tem)); bo = 0; cnt = 0; } return 0;}
