我想写一个函数,它以一个字母数组作为参数,并从中选择一些字母。
假设您提供了一个包含8个字母的数组,并希望从中选择3个字母。那么你应该得到:
8! / ((8 - 3)! * 3!) = 56
数组(或单词),每个数组由3个字母组成。

简单但缓慢的c++回溯算法。
#include <iostream>
void backtrack(int* numbers, int n, int k, int i, int s)
{
if (i == k)
{
for (int j = 0; j < k; ++j)
{
std::cout << numbers[j];
}
std::cout << std::endl;
return;
}
if (s > n)
{
return;
}
numbers[i] = s;
backtrack(numbers, n, k, i + 1, s + 1);
backtrack(numbers, n, k, i, s + 1);
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
int n = 5;
int k = 3;
int* numbers = new int[k];
backtrack(numbers, n, k, 0, 1);
delete[] numbers;
return 0;
}
其他回答
Python中的简短示例:
def comb(sofar, rest, n):
if n == 0:
print sofar
else:
for i in range(len(rest)):
comb(sofar + rest[i], rest[i+1:], n-1)
>>> comb("", "abcde", 3)
abc
abd
abe
acd
ace
ade
bcd
bce
bde
cde
为了解释,递归方法用下面的例子描述:
示例:A B C D E 3的所有组合是:
A与其余2的所有组合(B C D E) B与其余2的所有组合(C D E) C与其余2的所有组合(D E)
我可以给出这个问题的递归Python解决方案吗?
def choose_iter(elements, length):
for i in xrange(len(elements)):
if length == 1:
yield (elements[i],)
else:
for next in choose_iter(elements[i+1:], length-1):
yield (elements[i],) + next
def choose(l, k):
return list(choose_iter(l, k))
使用示例:
>>> len(list(choose_iter("abcdefgh",3)))
56
我喜欢它的简洁。
这里你有一个用c#编写的该算法的惰性评估版本:
static bool nextCombination(int[] num, int n, int k)
{
bool finished, changed;
changed = finished = false;
if (k > 0)
{
for (int i = k - 1; !finished && !changed; i--)
{
if (num[i] < (n - 1) - (k - 1) + i)
{
num[i]++;
if (i < k - 1)
{
for (int j = i + 1; j < k; j++)
{
num[j] = num[j - 1] + 1;
}
}
changed = true;
}
finished = (i == 0);
}
}
return changed;
}
static IEnumerable Combinations<T>(IEnumerable<T> elements, int k)
{
T[] elem = elements.ToArray();
int size = elem.Length;
if (k <= size)
{
int[] numbers = new int[k];
for (int i = 0; i < k; i++)
{
numbers[i] = i;
}
do
{
yield return numbers.Select(n => elem[n]);
}
while (nextCombination(numbers, size, k));
}
}
及测试部分:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int k = 3;
var t = new[] { "dog", "cat", "mouse", "zebra"};
foreach (IEnumerable<string> i in Combinations(t, k))
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Join(",", i));
}
}
希望这对你有帮助!
另一种版本,迫使所有前k个组合首先出现,然后是所有前k+1个组合,然后是所有前k+2个组合,等等。这意味着如果你对数组进行排序,最重要的在最上面,它会把它们逐渐扩展到下一个——只有在必须这样做的时候。
private static bool NextCombinationFirstsAlwaysFirst(int[] num, int n, int k)
{
if (k > 1 && NextCombinationFirstsAlwaysFirst(num, num[k - 1], k - 1))
return true;
if (num[k - 1] + 1 == n)
return false;
++num[k - 1];
for (int i = 0; i < k - 1; ++i)
num[i] = i;
return true;
}
例如,如果你在k=3, n=5上运行第一个方法("nextCombination"),你会得到:
0 1 2
0 1 3
0 1 4
0 2 3
0 2 4
0 3 4
1 2 3
1 2 4
1 3 4
2 3 4
但如果你跑
int[] nums = new int[k];
for (int i = 0; i < k; ++i)
nums[i] = i;
do
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Join(" ", nums));
}
while (NextCombinationFirstsAlwaysFirst(nums, n, k));
你会得到这个(为了清晰起见,我添加了空行):
0 1 2
0 1 3
0 2 3
1 2 3
0 1 4
0 2 4
1 2 4
0 3 4
1 3 4
2 3 4
它只在必须添加时才添加“4”,而且在添加“4”之后,它只在必须添加时再添加“3”(在执行01、02、12之后)。
static IEnumerable<string> Combinations(List<string> characters, int length)
{
for (int i = 0; i < characters.Count; i++)
{
// only want 1 character, just return this one
if (length == 1)
yield return characters[i];
// want more than one character, return this one plus all combinations one shorter
// only use characters after the current one for the rest of the combinations
else
foreach (string next in Combinations(characters.GetRange(i + 1, characters.Count - (i + 1)), length - 1))
yield return characters[i] + next;
}
}
短快C实现
#include <stdio.h>
void main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
const int n = 6; /* The size of the set; for {1, 2, 3, 4} it's 4 */
const int p = 4; /* The size of the subsets; for {1, 2}, {1, 3}, ... it's 2 */
int comb[40] = {0}; /* comb[i] is the index of the i-th element in the combination */
int i = 0;
for (int j = 0; j <= n; j++) comb[j] = 0;
while (i >= 0) {
if (comb[i] < n + i - p + 1) {
comb[i]++;
if (i == p - 1) { for (int j = 0; j < p; j++) printf("%d ", comb[j]); printf("\n"); }
else { comb[++i] = comb[i - 1]; }
} else i--; }
}
要查看它有多快,请使用这段代码并测试它
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
void main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
const int n = 32; /* The size of the set; for {1, 2, 3, 4} it's 4 */
const int p = 16; /* The size of the subsets; for {1, 2}, {1, 3}, ... it's 2 */
int comb[40] = {0}; /* comb[i] is the index of the i-th element in the combination */
int c = 0; int i = 0;
for (int j = 0; j <= n; j++) comb[j] = 0;
while (i >= 0) {
if (comb[i] < n + i - p + 1) {
comb[i]++;
/* if (i == p - 1) { for (int j = 0; j < p; j++) printf("%d ", comb[j]); printf("\n"); } */
if (i == p - 1) c++;
else { comb[++i] = comb[i - 1]; }
} else i--; }
printf("%d!%d == %d combination(s) in %15.3f second(s)\n ", p, n, c, clock()/1000.0);
}
使用cmd.exe (windows)测试:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
