Is-Subsequence

LeetCode#392 Is Subsequence

  Given a string s and a string t, check if s is subsequence of t.

You may assume that there is only lower case English letters in both s and t. t is potentially a very long (length ~= 500,000) string, and sis a short string (<=100).

A subsequence of a string is a new string which is formed from the original string by deleting some (can be none) of the characters without disturbing the relative positions of the remaining characters. (ie, "ace" is a subsequence of "abcde" while "aec" is not).

Example 1:
s = "abc", t = "ahbgdc"

Return true.

Example 2:
s = "axc", t = "ahbgdc"

Return false.

Follow up:
If there are lots of incoming S, say S1, S2, … , Sk where k >= 1B, and you want to check one by one to see if T has its subsequence. In this scenario, how would you change your code?

解题思路

  这道题是一道Medium,但是却非常的简单,定义指向S和T的指针,当他们所对应的字符相等时,两个指针都自增1,当他们不相等的时候T的指针自增。最后判断S的指针是否走到了最后就可以了。
