我在一次工作面试中被问到这个问题,我想知道其他人是如何解决这个问题的。我最擅长使用Java,但也欢迎使用其他语言的解决方案。

给定一个数字数组nums,返回一个数字数组products,其中products[i]是所有nums[j]的乘积,j != i。 输入:[1,2,3,4,5] 输出:[(2 * 3 * 4 * 5),(1 * 3 * 4 * 5),(1 * 2 * 4 * 5),(1 * 2 * 3 * 5),(1 * 2 * 3 * 4)] = [120, 60, 40, 30, 24] 你必须在O(N)中不使用除法来做这个。


当前回答

我有一个O(n)空间和O(n²)时间复杂度的解,如下所示,

public static int[] findEachElementAsProduct1(final int[] arr) {

        int len = arr.length;

//        int[] product = new int[len];
//        Arrays.fill(product, 1);

        int[] product = IntStream.generate(() -> 1).limit(len).toArray();


        for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {

            for (int j = 0; j < len; j++) {

                if (i == j) {
                    continue;
                }

                product[i] *= arr[j];
            }
        }

        return product;
    }

这是ptyhon版本

  # This solution use O(n) time and O(n) space
  def productExceptSelf(self, nums):
    """
    :type nums: List[int]
    :rtype: List[int]
    """
    N = len(nums)
    if N == 0: return

    # Initialzie list of 1, size N
    l_prods, r_prods = [1]*N, [1]*N

    for i in range(1, N):
      l_prods[i] = l_prods[i-1] * nums[i-1]

    for i in reversed(range(N-1)):
      r_prods[i] = r_prods[i+1] * nums[i+1]

    result = [x*y for x,y in zip(l_prods,r_prods)]
    return result

  # This solution use O(n) time and O(1) space
  def productExceptSelfSpaceOptimized(self, nums):
    """
    :type nums: List[int]
    :rtype: List[int]
    """
    N = len(nums)
    if N == 0: return

    # Initialzie list of 1, size N
    result = [1]*N

    for i in range(1, N):
      result[i] = result[i-1] * nums[i-1]

    r_prod = 1
    for i in reversed(range(N)):
      result[i] *= r_prod
      r_prod *= nums[i]

    return result

ruby的解决方案

a = [1,2,3,4]
result = []
a.each {|x| result.push( (a-[x]).reject(&:zero?).reduce(:*)) }
puts result

左旅行->右和保持保存产品。称之为过去。- > O (n) 旅行右->左保持产品。称之为未来。- > O (n) 结果[i] =过去[i-1] *将来[i+1] -> O(n) 过去[-1]= 1;和未来(n + 1) = 1;

O(n)

还有一个解决方案,使用除法。有两次遍历。 把所有元素相乘,然后除以每个元素。

以下是线性O(n)时间内的简单Scala版本:

def getProductEff(in:Seq[Int]):Seq[Int] = {

   //create a list which has product of every element to the left of this element
   val fromLeft = in.foldLeft((1, Seq.empty[Int]))((ac, i) => (i * ac._1, ac._2 :+ ac._1))._2

   //create a list which has product of every element to the right of this element, which is the same as the previous step but in reverse
   val fromRight = in.reverse.foldLeft((1,Seq.empty[Int]))((ac,i) => (i * ac._1,ac._2 :+ ac._1))._2.reverse

   //merge the two list by product at index
   in.indices.map(i => fromLeft(i) * fromRight(i))

}

这是可行的,因为本质上答案是一个数组,它是左右所有元素的乘积。
