Given a string which contains only lowercase letters, remove duplicate letters so that every letter appear once and only once. You must make sure your result is the smallest in lexicographical order among all possible results.
Example 1:
Input: "bcabc" Output: "abc"
Example 2:
Input: "cbacdcbc" Output: "acdb"
Approach #1: C++. [brute froce]
class Solution {
public:
string removeDuplicateLetters(string s) {
int size = s.size();
if (size == 0) return "";
int l = 0;
string ret = "";
vector<int> cnt(26, 0);
for (int j = 0; j < size; ++j) {
cnt[s[j] - ‘a‘] = 1;
}
int total_diff = std::accumulate(cnt.begin(), cnt.end(), 0);
for (int z = 0; z < total_diff; ++z) {
for (int i = 0; i < 26; ++i) {
int appear = -1;
for (int j = l; j < size; ++j) {
if (s[j] - ‘a‘ == i && ret.find(‘a‘ + i) == -1) {
appear = j;
break;
}
}
if (appear == -1) continue;
vector<int> cnt2(26, 0);
for (int j = appear; j < size; ++j)
cnt2[s[j] - ‘a‘] = 1;
for (auto c : ret)
cnt2[c - ‘a‘] = 1;
int num = std::accumulate(cnt2.begin(), cnt2.end(), 0);
if (num == total_diff) {
ret += char(‘a‘ + i);
l = appear + 1;
break;
}
}
}
return ret;
}
};
Approach #2: C++.
class Solution {
public:
string removeDuplicateLetters(string s) {
vector<int> cand(256, 0);
vector<bool> visited(256, false);
for (auto c : s)
cand[c]++;
string ret = "0";
for (auto c : s) {
cand[c]--;
if (visited[c]) continue;
while (c < ret.back() && cand[ret.back()]) {
visited[ret.back()] = false;
ret.pop_back();
}
visited[c] = true;
ret += c;
}
return ret.substr(1);
}
};
