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。

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。
其他回答
function foo(num){
sortOld = num.toString().split("").sort().join('');
do{
num++;
sortNew = num.toString().split("").sort().join('');
}while(sortNew!==sortOld);
return num;
}
我们需要找到最右边的0位,后面是1,然后将最右边的0位翻转为1。
例如,我们的输入是487,也就是二进制的111100111。
我们把后面有1的0往右翻转最多
所以我们得到 111101111
但是现在我们多了一个1,少了一个0,所以我们减少了右边1的个数 位增加1,并将0位的no增加1,得到
111101011 -二进制491
int getNextNumber(int input)
{
int flipPosition=0;
int trailingZeros=0;
int trailingOnes=0;
int copy = input;
//count trailing zeros
while(copy != 0 && (copy&1) == 0 )
{
++trailingZeros;
//test next bit
copy = copy >> 1;
}
//count trailing ones
while(copy != 0 && (copy&1) == 1 )
{
++trailingOnes;
//test next bit
copy = copy >> 1;
}
//if we have no 1's (i.e input is 0) we cannot form another pattern with
//the same number of 1's which will increment the input, or if we have leading consecutive
//ones followed by consecutive 0's up to the maximum bit size of a int
//we cannot increase the input whilst preserving the original no of 0's and
//1's in the bit pattern
if(trailingZeros + trailingOnes == 0 || trailingZeros + trailingOnes == 31)
return -1;
//flip first 0 followed by a 1 found from the right of the bit pattern
flipPosition = trailingZeros + trailingOnes+1;
input |= 1<<(trailingZeros+trailingOnes);
//clear fields to the right of the flip position
int mask = ~0 << (trailingZeros+trailingOnes);
input &= mask;
//insert a bit pattern to the right of the flip position that will contain
//one less 1 to compensate for the bit we switched from 0 to 1
int insert = flipPosition-1;
input |= insert;
return input;
}
有很多不错的答案,但我没有找到一个像样的Java实现。以下是我的观点:
public void findNext(int[] nums) {
int i = nums.length - 1;
// nums[i - 1] will be the first non increasing number
while (i > 0 && nums[i] <= nums[i - 1]) {
i--;
}
if (i == 0) {
System.out.println("it has been the greatest already");
} else {
// Find the smallest digit in the second sequence that is larger than it:
int j = nums.length - 1;
while (j >= 0 && nums[j] < nums[i - 1]) {
j--;
}
swap(nums, i - 1, j);
Arrays.sort(nums, i, nums.length);
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(nums));
}
}
public void swap(int[] nums, int i, int j) {
int tmp = nums[i];
nums[i] = nums[j];
nums[j] = tmp;
}
这是另一个Java实现,可以开箱即用,并通过测试完成。 这个解决方案是O(n)个空间和时间,使用老式的动态规划。
如果你想用蛮力,有两种蛮力:
排列所有的东西,然后选择最小值更高的:O(n!) 与此实现类似,但不是DP,而是强制填充的步骤 indexToIndexOfNextSmallerLeft映射将在O(n²)中运行。

I didn't know anything about the brute force algorithm when answering this question, so I approached it from another angle. I decided to search the entire range of possible solutions that this number could possibly be rearranged into, starting from the number_given+1 up to the max number available (999 for a 3 digit number, 9999 for 4 digits, etc.). I did this kind of like finding a palindrome with words, by sorting the numbers of each solution and comparing it to the sorted number given as the parameter. I then simply returned the first solution in the array of solutions, as this would be the next possible value.
下面是我的Ruby代码:
def PermutationStep(num)
a = []
(num.to_s.length).times { a.push("9") }
max_num = a.join('').to_i
verify = num.to_s.split('').sort
matches = ((num+1)..max_num).select {|n| n.to_s.split('').sort == verify }
if matches.length < 1
return -1
else
matches[0]
end
end
