6. Zigzag Conversion

The string “PAYPALISHIRING” is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)

P A H N
A P L S I I G
Y I R
And then read line by line: “PAHNAPLSIIGYIR”

Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:

string convert(string s, int numRows);

Example 1:

Input: s = “PAYPALISHIRING”, numRows = 3
Output: “PAHNAPLSIIGYIR”
Example 2:

Input: s = “PAYPALISHIRING”, numRows = 4
Output: “PINALSIGYAHRPI”
Explanation:
P I N
A L S I G
Y A H R
P I
Example 3:

Input: s = “A”, numRows = 1
Output: “A”

Constraints:

1 <= s.length <= 1000
s consists of English letters (lower-case and upper-case), ‘,’ and ‘.’.
1 <= numRows <= 1000

二、题解

找到字符串的周期规律，构建对应的字符串数组，

class Solution {
public:string convert(string s, int numRows) {int n = s.length();if(numRows == 1) return s;int reminder = 2 * numRows - 2;vector<string> rowString(numRows,"");for(int i = 0;i < n;i++){int mod = i % reminder;if(mod < numRows - 1) rowString[mod] += s[i];else rowString[numRows - 1 - (mod - numRows + 1)] += s[i];}string res = "";for(int i = 0;i < numRows;i++){res += rowString[i];}return res;}
};
