我正在寻找一个简单的公共方法或操作符,允许我重复一些字符串n次。我知道我可以使用for循环来写这个,但我希望在必要时避免for循环,并且应该在某个地方存在一个简单的直接方法。

String str = "abc";
String repeated = str.repeat(3);

repeated.equals("abcabcabc");

当它们不是完全必要的时候,我尽量避免使用for循环,因为:

They add to the number of lines of code even if they are tucked away in another function. Someone reading my code has to figure out what I am doing in that for loop. Even if it is commented and has meaningful variables names, they still have to make sure it is not doing anything "clever". Programmers love to put clever things in for loops, even if I write it to "only do what it is intended to do", that does not preclude someone coming along and adding some additional clever "fix". They are very often easy to get wrong. For loops involving indexes tend to generate off by one bugs. For loops often reuse the same variables, increasing the chance of really hard to find scoping bugs. For loops increase the number of places a bug hunter has to look.

我想要一个函数来为JDBC创建一个以逗号分隔的问号列表,然后找到了这篇文章。所以,我决定采用两个变体,看看哪个表现更好。在100万次迭代之后,普通的StringBuilder花了2秒(fun1),而神秘的最优版本(fun2)花了30秒。又变得神秘有什么意义?

private static String fun1(int size) {
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(size * 2);
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        sb.append(",?");
    }
    return sb.substring(1);
}

private static String fun2(int size) {
    return new String(new char[size]).replaceAll("\0", ",?").substring(1);
}

不是最短的,但(我认为)最快的方法是使用StringBuilder:

 /**
   * Repeat a String as many times you need.
   *
   * @param i - Number of Repeating the String.
   * @param s - The String wich you want repeated.
   * @return The string n - times.
   */
  public static String repeate(int i, String s) {
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    for (int j = 0; j < i; j++)
      sb.append(s);
    return sb.toString();
  }

为了可读性和可移植性:

public String repeat(String str, int count){
    if(count <= 0) {return "";}
    return new String(new char[count]).replace("\0", str);
}

如果担心性能问题,只需在循环中使用StringBuilder,并在循环退出时执行. tostring()。见鬼,编写自己的Util类并重用它。最多5行代码。

只使用JRE类(System.arraycopy)并尽量减少临时对象的数量,你可以这样写:

public static String repeat(String toRepeat, int times) {
    if (toRepeat == null) {
        toRepeat = "";
    }

    if (times < 0) {
        times = 0;
    }

    final int length = toRepeat.length();
    final int total = length * times;
    final char[] src = toRepeat.toCharArray();
    char[] dst = new char[total];

    for (int i = 0; i < total; i += length) {
        System.arraycopy(src, 0, dst, i, length);
    }

    return String.copyValueOf(dst);
}

EDIT

如果没有循环,你可以尝试:

public static String repeat2(String toRepeat, int times) {
    if (toRepeat == null) {
        toRepeat = "";
    }

    if (times < 0) {
        times = 0;
    }

    String[] copies = new String[times];
    Arrays.fill(copies, toRepeat);
    return Arrays.toString(copies).
              replace("[", "").
              replace("]", "").
              replaceAll(", ", "");
}

使用Collections甚至更短:

public static String repeat3(String toRepeat, int times) {
    return Collections.nCopies(times, toRepeat).
           toString().
           replace("[", "").
           replace("]", "").
           replaceAll(", ", "");
}

然而,我仍然喜欢第一个版本。

这是最新的Stringutils.java

    public static String repeat(String str, int repeat) {
    // Performance tuned for 2.0 (JDK1.4)

    if (str == null) {
        return null;
    }
    if (repeat <= 0) {
        return EMPTY;
    }
    int inputLength = str.length();
    if (repeat == 1 || inputLength == 0) {
        return str;
    }
    if (inputLength == 1 && repeat <= PAD_LIMIT) {
        return repeat(str.charAt(0), repeat);
    }

    int outputLength = inputLength * repeat;
    switch (inputLength) {
        case 1 :
            return repeat(str.charAt(0), repeat);
        case 2 :
            char ch0 = str.charAt(0);
            char ch1 = str.charAt(1);
            char[] output2 = new char[outputLength];
            for (int i = repeat * 2 - 2; i >= 0; i--, i--) {
                output2[i] = ch0;
                output2[i + 1] = ch1;
            }
            return new String(output2);
        default :
            StringBuilder buf = new StringBuilder(outputLength);
            for (int i = 0; i < repeat; i++) {
                buf.append(str);
            }
            return buf.toString();
    }
    }

它甚至不需要这么大,可以做成这样,可以复制和粘贴 到项目中的实用程序类中。

    public static String repeat(String str, int num) {
    int len = num * str.length();
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(len);
    for (int i = 0; i < times; i++) {
        sb.append(str);
    }
    return sb.toString();
    }

所以e5,我认为最好的方法是简单地使用上面提到的代码,或者这里的任何答案。但是如果它是一个小项目,Commons lang就太大了
