282. Expression Add Operators
Description
Given a string num that contains only digits and an integer target, return all possibilities to insert the binary operators '+', '-', and/or '*' between the digits of num so that the resultant expression evaluates to the target value.
Note that operands in the returned expressions should not contain leading zeros.
Example 1:
Input: num = "123", target = 6 Output: ["1*2*3","1+2+3"] Explanation: Both "1*2*3" and "1+2+3" evaluate to 6.
Example 2:
Input: num = "232", target = 8 Output: ["2*3+2","2+3*2"] Explanation: Both "2*3+2" and "2+3*2" evaluate to 8.
Example 3:
Input: num = "3456237490", target = 9191 Output: [] Explanation: There are no expressions that can be created from "3456237490" to evaluate to 9191.
Constraints:
1 <= num.length <= 10numconsists of only digits.-231 <= target <= 231 - 1
Solutions
We need two variables diff and sumUpToPrevNum, one is used to record the value to be changed, the other is the value after the current operation, and they all need to use long type, because the string is converted to int type, it is easy to overflow.
For addition and subtraction, diff is the negative value of the number to be added and the number to be subtracted.
For multiplication, it’s a bit more complicated, diff is the diff of the last change multiplied by the number to be multiplied.
For example, for example, 2+3*2, when the calculation is about to multiply by 2, the last cycle of sumUpToPrevNum = 5, diff = 3, and if we want to calculate this multiplication by 2, the new change value diff should It is 3*2=6, and we need to remove the result of the previous +3 operation, and add a new diff, namely (5-3)+6=8, which is the value of the new expression 2+3*2.
Another thing to note is that if the input is “000”, 0, the following errors are prone to occur:
Wrong: ["0+0+0","0+0-0","0+0*0","0-0+0","0-0-0","0-0*0" ,"0*0+0","0*0-0","0*0*0","0+00","0-00","0*00","00+0"," 00-0","00*0","000"]
Correct:["0*0*0","0*0+0","0*0-0","0+0*0","0+0+0","0+0-0" ,"0-0*0","0-0+0","0-0-0"]
