原题
The gray code is a binary numeral system where two successive values differ in only one bit.
Given a non-negative integer n representing the total number of bits in the code, print the sequence of gray code. A gray code sequence must begin with 0.
Example 1:
Input: 2
Output: [0,1,3,2]
Explanation:
00 - 0
01 - 1
11 - 3
10 - 2
For a given n, a gray code sequence may not be uniquely defined.
For example, [0,2,3,1] is also a valid gray code sequence.
00 - 0
10 - 2
11 - 3
01 - 1
Example 2:
Input: 0
Output: [0]
Explanation: We define the gray code sequence to begin with 0.
A gray code sequence of n has size = 2n, which for n = 0 the size is 20 = 1.
Therefore, for n = 0 the gray code sequence is [0].
解法
gray code的定义是相邻两个码之间只有一个bit不同. 首先我们推算n对应的字符串, base case是n==0, 返回[‘0’].
1位格雷码有两个码字
(n+1)位格雷码中的前2n个码字等于n位格雷码的码字,按顺序书写,加前缀0
(n+1)位格雷码中的后2n个码字等于n位格雷码的码字,按逆序书写,加前缀1
因此当n > 1时, 推导函数为
f(n) = ['0'+s for s in f(n-1)] + ['1'+s for s in f(n-1)[::-1]]
最后用map函数将列表里的二进制字符串转化为整数.
代码
class Solution(object):
def grayCode(self, n):
"""
:type n: int
:rtype: List[int]
"""
return map(lambda x: int(x, 2), self.grayBit(n))
def grayBit(self, n):
if n == 0:
return ['0']
if n == 1:
return ['0','1']
prev = self.grayBit(n-1)
return ['0'+s for s in prev] + ['1'+s for s in prev[::-1]]
