我刚刚搞砸了一次面试,而且我的面试问题几乎毫无进展。
给定一个数,找出下一个与之完全相同的更大的数 作为原始数字的数字集。例如:给定38276返回 38627
我想从找到第一个比个位小的数字的下标开始。然后我将旋转子集中的最后一个数字,这样它是由相同的数字组成的下一个最大的数字,但卡住了。
面试官还建议我试着一次换一个数字,但我搞不懂算法,只能盯着屏幕看20-30分钟。不用说,我想我还得继续找工作。

非常简单的实现使用Javascript,下一个最高的数字与相同的数字
/*
Algorithm applied
I) Traverse the given number from rightmost digit, keep traversing till you find a digit which is smaller than the previously traversed digit. For example, if the input number is “534976”, we stop at 4 because 4 is smaller than next digit 9. If we do not find such a digit, then output is “Not Possible”.
II) Now search the right side of above found digit ‘d’ for the smallest digit greater than ‘d’. For “534976″, the right side of 4 contains “976”. The smallest digit greater than 4 is 6.
III) Swap the above found two digits, we get 536974 in above example.
IV) Now sort all digits from position next to ‘d’ to the end of number. The number that we get after sorting is the output. For above example, we sort digits in bold 536974. We get “536479” which is the next greater number for input 534976.

function findNext(arr)
{
let i;
//breaking down a digit into arrays of string and then converting back that array to number array
let arr1=arr.toString().split('').map(Number) ;
//started to loop from the end of array
for(i=arr1.length;i>0;i--)
{
//looking for if the current number is greater than the number next to it
if(arr1[i]>arr1[i-1])
{// if yes then we break the loop it so that we can swap and sort
break;}
}
if(i==0)
{console.log("Not possible");}
else
{
//saving that big number and smaller number to the left of it
let smlNum =arr1[i-1];
let bigNum =i;
/*now looping again and checking if we have any other greater number, if we have one AFTER big number and smaller number to the right.
A greater number that is of course greater than that smaller number but smaller than the first number we found.
Why are doing this? Because that is an algorithm to find next higher number with same digits.
*/
for(let j=i+1;j<arr1.length;j++)
{//What if there are no digits afters those found numbers then of course loop will not be initiated otherwise...
if(arr1[j]> smlNum && arr1[j]<arr1[i])
{// we assign that other found number here and replace it with the one we found before
bigNum=j;
}
} //now we are doing swapping of places the small num and big number , 3rd part of alogorithm
arr1[i-1]=arr1[bigNum];
arr1[bigNum]=smlNum;
//returning array
//too many functions applied sounds complicated right but no, here is the trick
//return arr first then apply each function one by one to see output and then further another func to that output to match your needs
// so here after swapping , 4th part of alogorithm is to sort the array right after the 1st small num we found
// to do that first we simple take part of array, we splice it and then we apply sort fucntion, then check output (to check outputs, pls use chrome dev console)
//and then simply the rest concat and join to main one digit again.
return arr1.concat((arr1.splice(i,arr1.length)).sort(function(a, b){return a-b})).join('');
// Sorry to make it too long but its fun explaining things in much easier ways as much as possible!!

这是个很有趣的问题。
这是我的java版本。在我检查其他贡献者的评论之前,从弄清楚模式到完全完成代码,我花了大约3个小时。很高兴看到我的想法和别人一样。
O (n)的解决方案。老实说,如果时间只有15分钟,并且要求在白板上完成完整的代码,我将会失败。
以下是我的解决方案的一些有趣点:
避免任何排序。 完全避免字符串操作 实现O(logN)空间复杂度
我在代码中添加了详细注释,并在每个步骤中添加了大O。
public int findNextBiggestNumber(int input ) {
//take 1358642 as input for example.
//Step 1: split the whole number to a list for individual digital 1358642->[2,4,6,8,5,3,1]
// this step is O(n)
int digitalLevel=input;
List<Integer> orgNumbersList=new ArrayList<Integer>() ;
do {
Integer nInt = new Integer(digitalLevel % 10);
orgNumbersList.add(nInt);
digitalLevel=(int) (digitalLevel/10 ) ;
} while( digitalLevel >0) ;
int len= orgNumbersList.size();
int [] orgNumbers=new int[len] ;
for(int i=0;i<len;i++){
orgNumbers[i ] = orgNumbersList.get(i).intValue();
}
//step 2 find the first digital less than the digital right to it
// this step is O(n)
int firstLessPointer=1;
while(firstLessPointer<len&&(orgNumbers[firstLessPointer]>orgNumbers[ firstLessPointer-1 ])){
firstLessPointer++;
}
if(firstLessPointer==len-1&&orgNumbers[len-1]>=orgNumbers[len-2]){
//all number is in sorted order like 4321, no answer for it, return original
return input;
}
//when step 2 step finished, firstLessPointer pointing to number 5
//step 3 fristLessPointer found, need to find to first number less than it from low digital in the number
//This step is O(n)
int justBiggerPointer= 0 ;
while(justBiggerPointer<firstLessPointer&& orgNumbers[justBiggerPointer]<orgNumbers[firstLessPointer]){
justBiggerPointer++;
}
//when step 3 finished, justBiggerPointer pointing to 6
//step 4 swap the elements of justBiggerPointer and firstLessPointer .
// This is O(1) operation for swap
int tmp= orgNumbers[firstLessPointer] ;
orgNumbers[firstLessPointer]= orgNumbers[justBiggerPointer] ;
orgNumbers[justBiggerPointer]=tmp ;
// when step 4 finished, the list looks like [2,4,5,8,6,3,1] the digital in the list before
// firstLessPointer is already sorted in our previous operation
// we can return result from this list but in a differrent way
int result=0;
int i=0;
int lowPointer=firstLessPointer;
//the following pick number from list from the position just before firstLessPointer, here is 8 -> 5 -> 4 -> 2
//This Operation is O(n)
while(lowPointer>0) {
result+= orgNumbers[--lowPointer]* Math.pow(10,i);
i++;
}
//the following pick number from list from position firstLessPointer
//This Operation is O(n)
while(firstLessPointer<len) {
result+= orgNumbers[firstLessPointer++ ]* Math.pow(10,i);
i++;
}
return result;
}
下面是在Intellj中运行的结果:
959879532-->959892357
1358642-->1362458
1234567-->1234576
77654321-->77654321
38276-->38627
47-->74
你的想法
我想从找到第一个比个位小的数字的下标开始。然后我将旋转子集中的最后一个数字,这样它是由相同的数字组成的下一个最大的数字,但卡住了。
其实还不错。您不仅要考虑最后一位数字,还要考虑所有比当前考虑的不那么重要的数字。在此之前,我们有一个单调的数字序列,即最右边的数字比它右边的邻居小。把
1234675
^
下一个有相同数字的大数是
1234756
将找到的数字交换为最后一位数字(考虑的数字中最小的数字),其余数字按递增顺序排列。
关于如何做到这一点,请参阅Knuth的“计算机编程艺术:生成所有排列”(.ps.gz)中的“算法L”。
@BlueRaja算法的javascript实现。
var Bar = function(num){
num = num.toString();
var max = 0;
for(var i=num.length-2; i>0; i--){
var numArray = num.substr(i).split("");
max = Math.max.apply(Math,numArray);
if(numArray[0]<max){
numArray.sort(function(a,b){return a-b;});
numArray.splice(-1);
numArray = numArray.join("");
return Number(num.substr(0,i)+max+numArray);
}
}
return -1;
};
这里是Java实现
public static int nextHigherNumber(int number) {
Integer[] array = convertToArray(number);
int pivotIndex = pivotMaxIndex(array);
int digitInFirstSequence = pivotIndex -1;
int lowerDigitIndexInSecondSequence = lowerDigitIndex(array[digitInFirstSequence], array, pivotIndex);
swap(array, digitInFirstSequence, lowerDigitIndexInSecondSequence);
doRercursiveQuickSort(array, pivotIndex, array.length - 1);
return arrayToInteger(array);
}
public static Integer[] convertToArray(int number) {
int i = 0;
int length = (int) Math.log10(number);
int divisor = (int) Math.pow(10, length);
Integer temp[] = new Integer[length + 1];
while (number != 0) {
temp[i] = number / divisor;
if (i < length) {
++i;
}
number = number % divisor;
if (i != 0) {
divisor = divisor / 10;
}
}
return temp;
}
private static int pivotMaxIndex(Integer[] array) {
int index = array.length - 1;
while(index > 0) {
if (array[index-1] < array[index]) {
break;
}
index--;
}
return index;
}
private static int lowerDigitIndex(int number, Integer[] array, int fromIndex) {
int lowerMaxIndex = fromIndex;
int lowerMax = array[lowerMaxIndex];
while (fromIndex < array.length - 1) {
if (array[fromIndex]> number && lowerMax > array[fromIndex]) {
lowerMaxIndex = fromIndex;
}
fromIndex ++;
}
return lowerMaxIndex;
}
public static int arrayToInteger(Integer[] array) {
int number = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
number+=array[i] * Math.pow(10, array.length-1-i);
}
return number;
}
这里是单元测试
