Given n pairs of parentheses, write a function to generate all combinations of well-formed parentheses.
For example, given n = 3, a solution set is:
"((()))", "(()())", "(())()", "()(())", "()()()"
Analysis:For example, given n = 3, a solution set is:
"((()))", "(()())", "(())()", "()(())", "()()()"
The problem asks for all combinations, this usually indicates it's a DFS problem.
In the recursion function, if we've used up all left and right parentheses, we push the formed string into result vector. Otherwise, we can add either left parentheses or right parentheses. The code for this problem is shown in Sol 1 below.
The extended version of this problem is that instead of only having parentheses, we are given n1 parentheses pairs, n2 bracket pairs, and n3 curly parentheses, and we are asked for the same thing - all combinations.
The idea is pretty similar to the simple version. The only difference is that we can do one of the following:
1) add left parentheses '(';
2) add left bracket '[';
3) add left curly parentheses '{';
4) add the right part, depending on the left situation, we choose either ')', ']', or '}'.
The code is shown in Sol 2 below.
Code:
Sol 1:
class Solution { public: vector<string> generateParenthesis(int n) { vector<string> res; if (n<1) return res; dfs(res, "", "", n); return res; } void dfs(vector<string> &res, string left, string tmp, int n) { if (left.size()==0 && n==0) { res.push_back(tmp); return; } if (n>0) { dfs(res, "("+left, tmp+"(", n-1); } if (left.size()>0) { dfs(res, left.substr(1), tmp+")", n); } } };
Sol 2:
string rightPart(string left) { if (left=="(") return ")"; else if (left=="[") return "]"; else return "}"; } void dfsParen(vector<string> &res, string leftStack, string str, int n1, int n2, int n3) { if (leftStack.empty() && n1==0 && n2==0 && n3==0) { res.push_back(str); return; } // add left parentheses if (n1>0) { dfsParen(res, "("+leftStack, str+"(", n1-1, n2, n3); } if (n2>0) { dfsParen(res, "["+leftStack, str+"[", n1, n2-1, n3); } if (n3>0) { dfsParen(res, "{"+leftStack, str+"{", n1, n2, n3-1); } // add right parentheses if (!leftStack.empty()) { dfsParen(res, leftStack.substr(1), str+rightPart(leftStack.substr(0,1)), n1, n2, n3); } } vector<string> getParen(int n1, int n2, int n3) { vector<string> res; if (n1==0 && n2==0 && n3==0) return res; string leftStack; string str=""; dfsParen(res, leftStack, str, n1, n2, n3); return res; }
