题目:
Given a string containing just the characters '('
and ')'
, find the length of the longest valid (well-formed) parentheses substring.
For "(()"
, the longest valid parentheses substring is "()"
, which has length = 2.
Another example is ")()())"
, where the longest valid parentheses substring is "()()"
, which has length = 4.
之前写过一题类似的,是用栈去维护括号匹配的做法,因此想有没其他的做法。
当r>l时,移动i指针知道满足r==l并输出长度。
但这么做无法计算当l>r时,j已经扫描到字符结尾时最长匹配,例如(()的情况。
我想到的解决办法是吧字符串反转,因为括号反转后不改变之间的匹配,在用同样的方式扫描一遍,正好能考虑出剩余的情况。
class Solution { public: int longestValidParentheses(string s) { int i,j,l=0,r=0,maxx=0; for(i=0,j=0;j<s.length();++j) { if(s[j]=='(')l++; else r++; while(r>l&&i<=j) { if(s[i++]=='(')--l; else --r; } if(r==l)maxx=max(maxx,j-i+1); } reverse(s.begin(),s.end()); l=r=0; for(i=0,j=0;j<s.length();++j) { if(s[j]==')')l++; else r++; while(r>l&&i<=j) { if(s[i++]==')')--l; else --r; } if(r==l)maxx=max(maxx,j-i+1); } return maxx; } };
