题目
思路
dp[i][j]
代表 word1
到 i
位置转换成 word2
到 j
位置需要最少步数,所以,
当
word1[i] == word2[j]
,dp[i][j] = dp[i-1][j-1]
;当
word1[i] != word2[j]
,dp[i][j] = 1 + min(dp[i-1][j-1], dp[i-1][j], dp[i][j-1])
其中,dp[i-1][j-1]
表示替换操作,dp[i-1][j]
表示对word1
插入,dp[i][j-1]
表示对word2
插入。
注意,针对第一行,第一列要单独考虑,我们引入 '' 下图所示,初始化如下所示:
代码
python
class Solution:
def minDistance(self, word1: str, word2: str) -> int:
dp = [[0] * (len(word2)+1) for _ in range(len(word1)+1)]
for i in range(len(word1)+1):
dp[i][0] = i
for j in range(len(word2)+1):
dp[0][j] = j
for i in range(1, len(word1)+1):
for j in range(1, len(word2)+1):
if word1[i-1] == word2[j-1]:
dp[i][j] = dp[i-1][j-1]
else:
dp[i][j] = 1 + min(dp[i-1][j-1], dp[i-1][j], dp[i][j-1])
return dp[-1][-1]
