September LeetCoding Challenge 23
Description
Compare Version Numbers
Given two version strings, version1 and version2, compare them. A version string consists of revisions separated by dots '.'. The value of the revision is its integer conversion ignoring leading zeros.
To compare version strings, compare their revision values in left-to-right order. If one of the version strings has fewer revisions, treat the missing revision values as 0.
Return the following:
- If
version1 < version2, return -1. - If
version1 > version2, return 1. - Otherwise, return 0.
Example 1:
Input: version1 = "1.2", version2 = "1.10"
Output: -1
Explanation:
version1's second revision is "2" and version2's second revision is "10": 2 < 10, so version1 < version2.
Example 2:
Input: version1 = "1.01", version2 = "1.001"
Output: 0
Explanation:
Ignoring leading zeroes, both "01" and "001" represent the same integer "1".
Example 3:
Input: version1 = "1.0", version2 = "1.0.0.0"
Output: 0
Explanation:
version1 has less revisions, which means every missing revision are treated as "0".
Constraints:
1 <= version1.length, version2.length <= 500version1andversion2only contain digits and'.'.version1andversion2are valid version numbers.- All the given revisions in
version1andversion2can be stored in a 32-bit integer.
Solution
class Solution {
vector<int> parseVersion(const string &version) {
vector<int> result;
int current = 0;
for(auto c : version) {
if(isdigit(c)) {
current *= 10;
current += c - '0';
} else {
result.push_back(current);
current = 0;
}
}
result.push_back(current);
return result;
}
public:
int compareVersion(string version1, string version2) {
auto v1 = parseVersion(version1);
auto v2 = parseVersion(version2);
while(v1.size() != v2.size()) {
if(v1.size() < v2.size()) {
v1.push_back(0);
} else {
v2.push_back(0);
}
}
if(v1 < v2) return -1;
if(v1 == v2) return 0;
return 1;
}
