290. Word Pattern
Given a pattern
and a string str
, find if str
follows the same pattern.
Here follow means a full match, such that there is a bijection between a letter in pattern
and a non-empty word in str
.
Example 1:
Input: pattern = "abba", str = "dog cat cat dog"
Output: true
Example 2:
Input:pattern = "abba", str = "dog cat cat fish"
Output: false
Example 3:
Input: pattern = "aaaa", str = "dog cat cat dog"
Output: false
Example 4:
Input: pattern = "abba", str = "dog dog dog dog"
Output: false
Notes:
You may assume pattern
contains only lowercase letters, and str
contains lowercase letters that may be separated by a single space.
bool wordPattern(string pattern, string str) { // time: O(n); space: O(n)
unordered_map<char, string> char2str;
unordered_set<string> strSt;
istringstream is(str);
string cur;
int i = 0, n = pattern.size();
while (i < n && is >> cur) {
if ((char2str.count(pattern[i]) && char2str[pattern[i]] != cur) ||
!char2str.count(pattern[i]) && strSt.count(cur))
return false;
else {
char2str[pattern[i]] = cur;
strSt.insert(cur);
}
++i;
}
return i == n && !(is >> cur);
}
