288. Unique Word Abbreviation
An abbreviation of a word follows the form <first letter><number><last letter>. Below are some examples of word abbreviations:
a) it --> it (no abbreviation)
1
↓
b) d|o|g --> d1g
1 1 1
1---5----0----5--8
↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓
c) i|nternationalizatio|n --> i18n
1
1---5----0
↓ ↓ ↓
d) l|ocalizatio|n --> l10n
Assume you have a dictionary and given a word, find whether its abbreviation is unique in the dictionary. A word's abbreviation is unique if no other word from the dictionary has the same abbreviation.
Example:
Given dictionary = [ "deer", "door", "cake", "card" ]
isUnique("dear") -> false
isUnique("cart") -> true
isUnique("cane") -> false
isUnique("make") -> true
class ValidWordAbbr {
public:
ValidWordAbbr(vector<string> dictionary) {
for (string& str : dictionary) {
int n = str.size();
string a = n <= 2 ? str : str[0] + to_string(n - 2) + str[n - 1];
m[a].insert(str);
}
}
bool isUnique(string word) {
int n = word.size();
string a = n <= 2 ? word : word[0] + to_string(n - 2) + word[n - 1];
// if (m.count(a)) {
// if (m[a].count(word) && m[a].size() == 1) return true;
// else return false;
// } else {
// return true;
// }
return (m.count(a) && m[a].count(word) && m[a].size() == 1) || !m.count(a);
}
unordered_map<string, unordered_set<string> > m;
};
