The string “PAYPALISHIRING” is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)



And then read line by line: “PAHNAPLSIIGYIR”

Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:

string convert(string text, int nRows);

convert(“PAYPALISHIRING”, 3) should return “PAHNAPLSIIGYIR”.

分析

思路参考博客，在此表示对博主的感谢。

向下循环:nRows

斜角线循环:nRows-2(减去首尾两个端点)

AC代码

class Solution {

public:

    string convert(string s, int numRows) {

        if (s.empty() || numRows == 1)

            return s;

        //声明numRows个字符串，对该之字型序列处理

        string *res = new string[numRows];

        int i = 0, j, gap = numRows - 2;

        while (i < s.size()){

            for (j = 0; i < s.size() && j < numRows; ++j) res[j] += s[i++];

            for (j = gap; i < s.size() && j > 0; --j) res[j] += s[i++];

        }

        string str = "";

        for (i = 0; i < numRows; ++i)

            str += res[i];

        return str;

    }

};
