多基因润滑剂方法的一个解释是:

诀窍是构造数组(在4个元素的情况下):

{              1,         a[0],    a[0]*a[1],    a[0]*a[1]*a[2],  }
{ a[1]*a[2]*a[3],    a[2]*a[3],         a[3],                 1,  }

这两种方法都可以在O(n)中分别从左右边开始。

然后，将两个数组逐个元素相乘，得到所需的结果。

我的代码看起来是这样的:

int a[N] // This is the input
int products_below[N];
int p = 1;
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
    products_below[i] = p;
    p *= a[i];
}

int products_above[N];
p = 1;
for (int i = N - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
    products_above[i] = p;
    p *= a[i];
}

int products[N]; // This is the result
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
    products[i] = products_below[i] * products_above[i];
}

如果你也需要空间中的解是O(1)，你可以这样做(在我看来不太清楚):

int a[N] // This is the input
int products[N];

// Get the products below the current index
int p = 1;
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
    products[i] = p;
    p *= a[i];
}

// Get the products above the current index
p = 1;
for (int i = N - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
    products[i] *= p;
    p *= a[i];
}

将Michael Anderson的解决方案翻译成Haskell:

otherProducts xs = zipWith (*) below above

     where below = scanl (*) 1 $ init xs

           above = tail $ scanr (*) 1 xs

{-
Recursive solution using sqrt(n) subsets. Runs in O(n).

Recursively computes the solution on sqrt(n) subsets of size sqrt(n). 
Then recurses on the product sum of each subset.
Then for each element in each subset, it computes the product with
the product sum of all other products.
Then flattens all subsets.

Recurrence on the run time is T(n) = sqrt(n)*T(sqrt(n)) + T(sqrt(n)) + n

Suppose that T(n) ≤ cn in O(n).

T(n) = sqrt(n)*T(sqrt(n)) + T(sqrt(n)) + n
    ≤ sqrt(n)*c*sqrt(n) + c*sqrt(n) + n
    ≤ c*n + c*sqrt(n) + n
    ≤ (2c+1)*n
    ∈ O(n)

Note that ceiling(sqrt(n)) can be computed using a binary search 
and O(logn) iterations, if the sqrt instruction is not permitted.

otherProducts [] = []
otherProducts [x] = [1]
otherProducts [x,y] = [y,x]
otherProducts a = foldl' (++) [] $ zipWith (\s p -> map (*p) s) solvedSubsets subsetOtherProducts
    where 
      n = length a

      -- Subset size. Require that 1 < s < n.
      s = ceiling $ sqrt $ fromIntegral n

      solvedSubsets = map otherProducts subsets
      subsetOtherProducts = otherProducts $ map product subsets

      subsets = reverse $ loop a []
          where loop [] acc = acc
                loop a acc = loop (drop s a) ((take s a):acc)

下面是我尝试用Java来解决这个问题。抱歉格式不规范，但代码有很多重复，这是我能做的最好的，使它可读。

import java.util.Arrays;

public class Products {
    static int[] products(int... nums) {
        final int N = nums.length;
        int[] prods = new int[N];
        Arrays.fill(prods, 1);
        for (int
           i = 0, pi = 1    ,  j = N-1, pj = 1  ;
           (i < N)         && (j >= 0)          ;
           pi *= nums[i++]  ,  pj *= nums[j--]  )
        {
           prods[i] *= pi   ;  prods[j] *= pj   ;
        }
        return prods;
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println(
            Arrays.toString(products(1, 2, 3, 4, 5))
        ); // prints "[120, 60, 40, 30, 24]"
    }
}

循环不变量为pi = nums[0] * nums[1] *..* nums[N-2] *..num [j + 1]。左边的i部分是“前缀”逻辑，右边的j部分是“后缀”逻辑。

递归一行程序

Jasmeet给出了一个(漂亮的!)递归解;我把它变成了这样(可怕!)Java一行程序。它进行就地修改，堆栈中有O(N)个临时空间。

static int multiply(int[] nums, int p, int n) {
    return (n == nums.length) ? 1
      : nums[n] * (p = multiply(nums, nums[n] * (nums[n] = p), n + 1))
          + 0*(nums[n] *= p);
}

int[] arr = {1,2,3,4,5};
multiply(arr, 1, 0);
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr));
// prints "[120, 60, 40, 30, 24]"

这个解决方案可以被认为是C/ c++的。 假设我们有一个包含n个元素的数组a 像a[n]一样，那么伪代码将如下所示。

for(j=0;j<n;j++)
  { 
    prod[j]=1;

    for (i=0;i<n;i++)
    {   
        if(i==j)
        continue;  
        else
        prod[j]=prod[j]*a[i];
  }

我习惯使用c#:

    public int[] ProductExceptSelf(int[] nums)
    {
        int[] returnArray = new int[nums.Length];
        List<int> auxList = new List<int>();
        int multTotal = 0;

        // If no zeros are contained in the array you only have to calculate it once
        if(!nums.Contains(0))
        {
            multTotal = nums.ToList().Aggregate((a, b) => a * b);

            for (int i = 0; i < nums.Length; i++)
            {
                returnArray[i] = multTotal / nums[i];
            }
        }
        else
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < nums.Length; i++)
            {
                auxList = nums.ToList();
                auxList.RemoveAt(i);
                if (!auxList.Contains(0))
                {
                    returnArray[i] = auxList.Aggregate((a, b) => a * b);
                }
                else
                {
                    returnArray[i] = 0;
                }
            }
        }            

        return returnArray;
    }
