LeetCode17:Letter Combinations of a Phone Number

Given a digit string, return all possible letter combinations that the number could represent.

A mapping of digit to letters (just like on the telephone buttons) is given below.

Input:Digit string “23”
Output: [“ad”, “ae”, “af”, “bd”, “be”, “bf”, “cd”, “ce”, “cf”].
Note:
Although the above answer is in lexicographical order, your answer could be in any order you want.

这明显的一道回溯法的题，使用深度优先遍历每个数字可能对应的字符，每遍历完一个字符回溯回下一个字符。使用一个字符串记录可能的路径，找到递归退出的条件是遍历完字符串。唯一要注意的一点是数字到字符之间的映射使用map< int ,string >可以实现，但是直接使用string[]也可以实现。

    }

    void helper(string digits,int pos,string &path,vector<string> &result,string * nums)
    {
        if(pos==digits.size())
        {
            result.push_back(path);
            return ;
        }
        string tmp=nums[digits[pos]-‘0‘];
        for(int i=0;i<tmp.size();i++)
        {
            path=path+tmp[i];
            helper(digits,pos+1,path,result,nums);
            path=path.substr(0,path.size()-1);
        }
    }
