LeetCode 65 - Valid Number


https://leetcode.com/problems/valid-number/
Validate if a given string can be interpreted as a decimal number.
Some examples:
"0" => true
" 0.1 " => true
"abc" => false
"1 a" => false
"2e10" => true
" -90e3   " => true
" 1e" => false
"e3" => false
" 6e-1" => true
" 99e2.5 " => false
"53.5e93" => true
" --6 " => false
"-+3" => false
"95a54e53" => false
Note: It is intended for the problem statement to be ambiguous. You should gather all requirements up front before implementing one. However, here is a list of characters that can be in a valid decimal number:
  • Numbers 0-9
  • Exponent - "e"
  • Positive/negative sign - "+"/"-"
  • Decimal point - "."
Of course, the context of these characters also matters in the input.

我们尝试着来优化一下,根据上面的分析,所有的字符可以分为六大类,空格,符号,数字,小数点,自然底数和其他字符,我们需要五个标志变量,num, dot, exp, sign分别表示数字,小数点,自然底数和符号是否出现,numAfterE表示自然底数后面是否有数字,那么我们分别来看各种情况:
- 空格: 我们需要排除的情况是,当前位置是空格而后面一位不为空格,但是之前有数字,小数点,自然底数或者符号出现时返回false。
- 符号:符号前面如果有字符的话必须是空格或者是自然底数,标记sign为true。
- 数字:标记num和numAfterE为true。
- 小数点:如果之前出现过小数点或者自然底数,返回false,否则标记dot为true。
- 自然底数:如果之前出现过自然底数或者之前从未出现过数字,返回false,否则标记exp为true,numAfterE为false。
- 其他字符:返回false。
最后返回num && numAfterE即可。
    bool isNumber(string s) {
        bool num = false, numAfterE = true, dot = false, exp = false, sign = false;
        int n = s.size();
        for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
            if (s[i] == ' ') {
                if (i < n - 1 && s[i + 1] != ' ' && (num || dot || exp || sign)) return false;
            } else if (s[i] == '+' || s[i] == '-') {
                if (i > 0 && s[i - 1] != 'e' && s[i - 1] != ' ') return false;
                sign = true;
            } else if (s[i] >= '0' && s[i] <= '9') {
                num = true;
                numAfterE = true;
            } else if (s[i] == '.') {
                if (dot || exp) return false;
                dot = true;
            } else if (s[i] == 'e') {
                if (exp || !num) return false;
                exp = true;
                numAfterE = false;
            } else return false;
        }
        return num && numAfterE;
    }

All we need is to have a couple of flags so we can process the string in linear time:
We start with trimming.
  • If we see [0-9] we reset the number flags.
  • We can only see . if we didn't see e or ..
  • We can only see e if we didn't see e but we did see a number. We reset numberAfterE flag.
  • We can only see + and - in the beginning and after an e
  • any other character break the validation.
At the and it is only valid if there was at least 1 number and if we did see an e then a number after it as well.
So basically the number should match this regular expression:
[-+]?(([0-9]+(.[0-9]*)?)|.[0-9]+)(e[-+]?[0-9]+)?
public boolean isNumber(String s) {
    s = s.trim();
    
    boolean pointSeen = false;
    boolean eSeen = false;
    boolean numberSeen = false;
    boolean numberAfterE = true;
    for(int i=0; i<s.length(); i++) {
        if('0' <= s.charAt(i) && s.charAt(i) <= '9') {
            numberSeen = true;
            numberAfterE = true;
        } else if(s.charAt(i) == '.') {
            if(eSeen || pointSeen) {
                return false;
            }
            pointSeen = true;
        } else if(s.charAt(i) == 'e') {
            if(eSeen || !numberSeen) {
                return false;
            }
            numberAfterE = false;
            eSeen = true;
        } else if(s.charAt(i) == '-' || s.charAt(i) == '+') {
            if(i != 0 && s.charAt(i-1) != 'e') {
                return false;
            }
        } else {
            return false;
        }
    }
    
    return numberSeen && numberAfterE;
}
