2437. Number of Valid Clock Times

Description

You are given a string of length 5 called time, representing the current time on a digital clock in the format "hh:mm". The earliest possible time is "00:00" and the latest possible time is "23:59".

In the string time, the digits represented by the ? symbol are unknown, and must be replaced with a digit from 0 to 9.

Return an integer answer, the number of valid clock times that can be created by replacing every ? with a digit from 0 to 9.

Example 1:

Input: time = "?5:00"
Output: 2
Explanation: We can replace the ? with either a 0 or 1, producing "05:00" or "15:00". Note that we cannot replace it with a 2, since the time "25:00" is invalid. In total, we have two choices.

Example 2:

Input: time = "0?:0?"
Output: 100
Explanation: Each ? can be replaced by any digit from 0 to 9, so we have 100 total choices.

Example 3:

Input: time = "??:??"
Output: 1440
Explanation: There are 24 possible choices for the hours, and 60 possible choices for the minutes. In total, we have 24 * 60 = 1440 choices.

Constraints:

time is a valid string of length 5 in the format "hh:mm".
"00" <= hh <= "23"
"00" <= mm <= "59"
Some of the digits might be replaced with '?' and need to be replaced with digits from 0 to 9.

Solutions

Solution 1: Enumeration

We can directly enumerate all times from $00:00$ to $23:59$, then judge whether each time is valid, if so, increment the answer.

After the enumeration ends, return the answer.

The time complexity is $O(24 \times 60)$, and the space complexity is $O(1)$.

Solution 2: Optimized Enumeration

We can separately enumerate hours and minutes, count how many hours and minutes meet the condition, and then multiply them together.

The time complexity is $O(24 + 60)$, and the space complexity is $O(1)$.
