我刚刚搞砸了一次面试,而且我的面试问题几乎毫无进展。

给定一个数,找出下一个与之完全相同的更大的数 作为原始数字的数字集。例如:给定38276返回 38627

我想从找到第一个比个位小的数字的下标开始。然后我将旋转子集中的最后一个数字,这样它是由相同的数字组成的下一个最大的数字,但卡住了。

面试官还建议我试着一次换一个数字,但我搞不懂算法,只能盯着屏幕看20-30分钟。不用说,我想我还得继续找工作。

@BlueRaja算法的javascript实现。

var Bar = function(num){ 
  num = num.toString();
  var max = 0;
  for(var i=num.length-2; i>0; i--){
    var numArray = num.substr(i).split("");
    max = Math.max.apply(Math,numArray);
    if(numArray[0]<max){
        numArray.sort(function(a,b){return a-b;});
        numArray.splice(-1);
        numArray = numArray.join("");
        return Number(num.substr(0,i)+max+numArray);
    }
  }
  return -1;
};

public static void findNext(long number){

这是我的代码,它是这个例子的修改版本

库:

class NumPermExample
{
    // print N! permutation of the characters of the string s (in order)
    public  static void perm1(String s, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
        perm1("", s);
    }

    private static void perm1(String prefix, String s, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
        int N = s.length();
        if (N == 0)
        {
            System.out.println(prefix);
            perm.add(prefix);
        }
        else
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
                perm1(prefix + s.charAt(i), s.substring(0, i)
                    + s.substring(i+1, N));
        }

    }

    // print N! permutation of the elements of array a (not in order)
    public static void perm2(String s, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
       int N = s.length();
       char[] a = new char[N];
       for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
           a[i] = s.charAt(i);
       perm2(a, N);
    }

    private static void perm2(char[] a, int n, ArrayList<String> perm)
    {
        if (n == 1)
        {
            System.out.println(a);
            perm.add(new String(a));
            return;
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        {
            swap(a, i, n-1);
            perm2(a, n-1);
            swap(a, i, n-1);
        }
    }  

    // swap the characters at indices i and j
    private static void swap(char[] a, int i, int j)
    {
        char c;
        c = a[i]; a[i] = a[j]; a[j] = c;
    }

    // next higher permutation
    public static int nextPermutation (int number)
    {
        ArrayList<String> perm = new ArrayList<String>();

        String cur = ""+number;

        int nextPerm = 0;

        perm1(cur, perm);

        for (String s : perm)
        {
            if (Integer.parseInt(s) > number
                        && (nextPerm == 0 ||
                            Integer.parseInt(s) < nextPerm))
            {
                nextPerm = Integer.parseInt(s);
            }
        }

            return nextPerm;
    }
}

测试:

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
    int a = 38276;

    int b = NumPermExample.nextPermutation(a);

    System.out.println("a: "+a+", b: "+b);
}

I didn't know anything about the brute force algorithm when answering this question, so I approached it from another angle. I decided to search the entire range of possible solutions that this number could possibly be rearranged into, starting from the number_given+1 up to the max number available (999 for a 3 digit number, 9999 for 4 digits, etc.). I did this kind of like finding a palindrome with words, by sorting the numbers of each solution and comparing it to the sorted number given as the parameter. I then simply returned the first solution in the array of solutions, as this would be the next possible value.

下面是我的Ruby代码:

def PermutationStep(num)

    a = []
    (num.to_s.length).times { a.push("9") }
    max_num = a.join('').to_i
    verify = num.to_s.split('').sort
    matches = ((num+1)..max_num).select {|n| n.to_s.split('').sort == verify }

    if matches.length < 1
      return -1
    else
      matches[0]
    end
end

Ruby的解决方案

def next_bigger(num)
  char_array = num.to_s.split('')
  return -1 if char_array.uniq.size == 1

  arr, target_idx, target_char = [], nil, nil
  # get first left-digit less than the right from right side
  (char_array.count - 1).times do |i|
    arr.unshift(char_array[-(i+1)])

    if char_array[-(i+2)] < char_array[-(i+1)]
      target_idx = char_array.count - (i + 2)
      target_char = char_array[-(i+2)]
      arr.unshift(char_array[-(i+2)])
      break
    end
  end
  return -1 unless target_idx

  # first smallest digit larger than target_char to the right
  ((target_char.to_i + 1)..9).to_a.each do |ch|
    if arr.index(ch.to_s)
      flip_char = arr.delete_at(arr.index(ch.to_s))
      # sort the digits to the right of flip_char
      arr.sort!
      # place flip_char to the left of target_char
      arr.unshift(flip_char)
      break
    end
  end

  (char_array[0...target_idx] + arr).join().to_i
end

回答在java与一个更多的条件添加

Next number should also be an Even number public static int nextDigit(int number) { String num = String.valueOf(number); int stop = 0; char[] orig_chars = null; char[] part1 = null; char[] part2 = null; orig_chars = num.toCharArray(); System.out.println("vivek c r"); for (int i = orig_chars.length - 1; i > 0; i--) { String previous = orig_chars[i - 1] + ""; String next = orig_chars[i] + ""; if (Integer.parseInt(previous) < Integer.parseInt(next)) { if (Integer.parseInt(previous) % 2 == 0) { String partString1 = ""; String partString2 = ""; for (int j = 0; j <= i - 1; j++) { partString1 = partString1.concat(orig_chars[j] + ""); } part1 = partString1.toCharArray(); for (int k = i; k < orig_chars.length; k++) { partString2 = partString2.concat(orig_chars[k] + ""); } part2 = partString2.toCharArray(); Arrays.sort(part2); for (int l = 0; l < part2.length; l++) { char temp = '0'; if (part2[l] > part1[i - 1]) { temp = part1[i - 1]; part1[i - 1] = part2[l]; part2[l] = temp; break; } } for (int m = 0; m < part2.length; m++) { char replace = '0'; if (part2[m] % 2 == 0) { replace = part2[m]; for (int n = m; n < part2.length - 1; n++) { part2[n] = part2[n + 1]; } part2[part2.length - 1] = replace; break; } } System.out.print(part1); System.out.println(part2); System.exit(0); } } } System.out.println("NONE"); return 0; }
