[LeetCode] 383. Ransom Note

[grandyang]

 


Given
 an 
arbitrary
 ransom
 note
 string 
and 
another 
string 
containing 
letters from
 all 
the 
magazines,
 write 
a 
function 
that 
will 
return 
true 
if 
the 
ransom 
 note 
can 
be 
constructed 
from 
the 
magazines ; 
otherwise, 
it 
will 
return 
false. 



Each 
letter
 in
 the
 magazine 
string 
can
 only 
be
 used 
once
 in
 your 
ransom
 note.

Note:
You may assume that both strings contain only lowercase letters.

canConstruct("a", "b") -> false
canConstruct("aa", "ab") -> false
canConstruct("aa", "aab") -> true

 

非常简单的一道题，就是用哈希Map统计字符的个数，参见代码如下：

 

class Solution {
public:
    bool canConstruct(string ransomNote, string magazine) {
        unordered_map<char, int> m;
        for (char c : magazine) ++m[c];
        for (char c : ransomNote) {
            if (--m[c] < 0) return false;
        }
        return true;
    }
};
