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。

当前回答
在Java中,这个算法比这个算法更简洁
public static int permutate2(int number){
String[] numArray = String.valueOf(number).split("");
for(int i = numArray.length - 1; i > 0; i--){
int current = Integer.valueOf(numArray[i]);
int previous = Integer.valueOf(numArray[i - 1]);
if(previous < current){
String[] rest = String.valueOf(number).substring(i, numArray.length).split("");
Arrays.sort(rest);
String picker = rest[0];
int pickerIndex = 0;
for(int n = 0; n < rest.length ; n++){
if(Integer.valueOf(rest[n]) > previous){
picker = rest[n];
pickerIndex = n;
break;
}
}
numArray[i - 1] = picker;
rest[pickerIndex] = String.valueOf(previous);
Arrays.sort(rest);
String newNumber = "";
for(int z = 0; z <= i - 1; z++){
newNumber += numArray[z];
}
for(String z : rest){
newNumber += z;
}
return Integer.valueOf(newNumber);
}
}
return number;
}
其他回答
只是使用python的另一个解决方案:
def PermutationStep(num):
if sorted(list(str(num)), reverse=True) == list(str(num)):
return -1
ls = list(str(num))
n = 0
inx = 0
for ind, i in enumerate(ls[::-1]):
if i < n:
n = i
inx = -(ind + 1)
break
n = i
ls[inx], ls[inx + 1] = ls[inx + 1], ls[inx]
nl = ls[inx::-1][::-1]
ln = sorted(ls[inx+1:])
return ''.join(nl) + ''.join(ln)
print PermutationStep(23514)
输出:
23541
function foo(num){
sortOld = num.toString().split("").sort().join('');
do{
num++;
sortNew = num.toString().split("").sort().join('');
}while(sortNew!==sortOld);
return num;
}
我知道这是一个非常老的问题,但我仍然没有在c#中找到简单的代码。这可能会对参加面试的男士有所帮助。
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int inputNumber = 629;
int i, currentIndexOfNewArray = 0;
int[] arrayOfInput = GetIntArray(inputNumber);
var numList = arrayOfInput.ToList();
int[] newArray = new int[arrayOfInput.Length];
do
{
int temp = 0;
int digitFoundAt = 0;
for (i = numList.Count; i > 0; i--)
{
if (numList[i - 1] > temp)
{
temp = numList[i - 1];
digitFoundAt = i - 1;
}
}
newArray[currentIndexOfNewArray] = temp;
currentIndexOfNewArray++;
numList.RemoveAt(digitFoundAt);
} while (arrayOfInput.Length > currentIndexOfNewArray);
Console.WriteLine(GetWholeNumber(newArray));
Console.ReadKey();
}
public static int[] GetIntArray(int num)
{
IList<int> listOfInts = new List<int>();
while (num > 0)
{
listOfInts.Add(num % 10);
num = num / 10;
}
listOfInts.Reverse();
return listOfInts.ToArray();
}
public static double GetWholeNumber(int[] arrayNumber)
{
double result = 0;
double multiplier = 0;
var length = arrayNumber.Count() - 1;
for(int i = 0; i < arrayNumber.Count(); i++)
{
multiplier = Math.Pow(10.0, Convert.ToDouble(length));
result += (arrayNumber[i] * multiplier);
length = length - 1;
}
return result;
}
}
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;
}
