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

我们可以先从列表中排除nums[j](其中j != i),然后得到其余部分的乘积;下面是python解决这个难题的方法:

from functools import reduce
def products(nums):
    return [ reduce(lambda x,y: x * y, nums[:i] + nums[i+1:]) for i in range(len(nums)) ]
print(products([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]))

[out]
[120, 60, 40, 30, 24]

其他回答

这是我的代码:

int multiply(int a[],int n,int nextproduct,int i)
{
    int prevproduct=1;
    if(i>=n)
        return prevproduct;
    prevproduct=multiply(a,n,nextproduct*a[i],i+1);
    printf(" i=%d > %d\n",i,prevproduct*nextproduct);
    return prevproduct*a[i];
}

int main()
{
    int a[]={2,4,1,3,5};
    multiply(a,5,1,0);
    return 0;
}

将Michael Anderson的解决方案翻译成Haskell:

otherProducts xs = zipWith (*) below above

     where below = scanl (*) 1 $ init xs

           above = tail $ scanr (*) 1 xs

下面是一个C实现 O(n)时间复杂度。 输入

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int x;
    printf("Enter The Size of Array : ");
    scanf("%d",&x);
    int array[x-1],i ;
    printf("Enter The Value of Array : \n");
      for( i = 0 ; i <= x-1 ; i++)
      {
          printf("Array[%d] = ",i);
          scanf("%d",&array[i]);
      }
    int left[x-1] , right[x-1];
    left[0] = 1 ;
    right[x-1] = 1 ;
      for( i = 1 ; i <= x-1 ; i++)
      {
          left[i] = left[i-1] * array[i-1];
      }
    printf("\nThis is Multiplication of array[i-1] and left[i-1]\n");
      for( i = 0 ; i <= x-1 ; i++)
      {
        printf("Array[%d] = %d , Left[%d] = %d\n",i,array[i],i,left[i]);
      }
      for( i = x-2 ; i >= 0 ; i--)
      {
          right[i] = right[i+1] * array[i+1];
      }
   printf("\nThis is Multiplication of array[i+1] and right[i+1]\n");
      for( i = 0 ; i <= x-1 ; i++)
      {
        printf("Array[%d] = %d , Right[%d] = %d\n",i,array[i],i,right[i]);
      }
    printf("\nThis is Multiplication of Right[i] * Left[i]\n");
      for( i = 0 ; i <= x-1 ; i++)
      {
          printf("Right[%d] * left[%d] = %d * %d = %d\n",i,i,right[i],left[i],right[i]*left[i]);
      }
    return 0 ;
}

输出

    Enter The Size of Array : 5
    Enter The Value of Array :
    Array[0] = 1
    Array[1] = 2
    Array[2] = 3
    Array[3] = 4
    Array[4] = 5

    This is Multiplication of array[i-1] and left[i-1]

    Array[1] = 2 , Left[1] = 1
    Array[2] = 3 , Left[2] = 2

    Array[4] = 5 , Left[4] = 24

    This is Multiplication of array[i+1] and right[i+1]
    Array[0] = 1 , Right[0] = 120
    Array[1] = 2 , Right[1] = 60
    Array[2] = 3 , Right[2] = 20
    Array[3] = 4 , Right[3] = 5
    Array[4] = 5 , Right[4] = 1

    This is Multiplication of Right[i] * Left[i]
    Right[0] * left[0] = 120 * 1 = 120
    Right[1] * left[1] = 60 * 1 = 60

    Right[3] * left[3] = 5 * 6 = 30
    Right[4] * left[4] = 1 * 24 = 24

鬼鬼祟祟地绕过“不划分”规则:

sum = 0.0
for i in range(a):
  sum += log(a[i])

for i in range(a):
  output[i] = exp(sum - log(a[i]))
