17. Letter Combinations of a Phone Number
Medium
Given a string containing digits from
2-9 inclusive, return all possible letter combinations that the number could represent.A mapping of digit to letters (just like on the telephone buttons) is given below. Note that 1 does not map to any letters.

Example:
Input: "23" Output: ["ad", "ae", "af", "bd", "be", "bf", "cd", "ce", "cf"].
解答:
class Solution {
public List<String> letterCombinations(String digits) {
String[] table = new String[]{"","","abc","def","ghi","jkl","mno","pqrs","tuv","wxyz"};
List<String> list = new ArrayList<>();
letterCombinations(list, digits, "", 0, table);
return list;
}
private void letterCombinations(List<String> list, String digits, String curr, int index, String[] table) {
// 最后一层退出条件
if(index == digits.length()) {
if(curr.length() != 0) {
list.add(curr);
}
return;
}
String temp = table[digits.charAt(index)-'0'];
for(int i = 0; i < temp.length(); i++) {
String next = curr + temp.charAt(i);
// 进入下一层
letterCombinations(list, digits, next, index+1, table);
}
}
}
经典的backtracking(回溯算法)的题目。当一个题目,存在各种满足条件的组合,并且需要把它们全部列出来时,就可以考虑backtracking了。当然,backtracking在一定程度上属于穷举,所以当数据特别大的时候,不合适。而对于那些题目,可能就需要通过动态规划来完成。
这道题的思路很简单,假设输入的是"23",2对应的是"abc",3对应的是"edf",那么我们在递归时,先确定2对应的其中一个字母(假设是a),然后进入下一层,穷举3对应的所有字母,并组合起来("ae","ad","af"),当"edf"穷举完后,返回上一层,更新字母b,再重新进入下一层。这个就是backtracing的基本思想。
