Duh, tôi cảm thấy mình thật ngu ngốc. Dưới đây là một giải pháp quá phức tạp, tôi sẽ giữ nguyên vì xét cho cùng thì nó cũng là một giải pháp. Một giải pháp đơn giản sẽ là:
// Generate a pretty string
val coinNames = List(("quarter", "quarters"),
("dime", "dimes"),
("nickel", "nickels"),
("penny", "pennies"))
def coinsString =
Function.tupled((quarters: Int, dimes: Int, nickels:Int, pennies: Int) => (
List(quarters, dimes, nickels, pennies)
zip coinNames // join with names
map (t => (if (t._1 != 1) (t._1, t._2._2) else (t._1, t._2._1))) // correct for number
map (t => t._1 + " " + t._2) // qty name
mkString " "
))
def allCombinations(amount: Int) =
(for{quarters <- 0 to (amount / 25)
dimes <- 0 to ((amount - 25*quarters) / 10)
nickels <- 0 to ((amount - 25*quarters - 10*dimes) / 5)
} yield (quarters, dimes, nickels, amount - 25*quarters - 10*dimes - 5*nickels)
) map coinsString mkString "\n"
Đây là giải pháp khác. Giải pháp này dựa trên quan sát rằng mỗi đồng xu là bội số của những đồng tiền khác, vì vậy chúng có thể được đại diện cho chúng.
// Just to make things a bit more readable, as these routines will access
// arrays a lot
val coinValues = List(25, 10, 5, 1)
val coinNames = List(("quarter", "quarters"),
("dime", "dimes"),
("nickel", "nickels"),
("penny", "pennies"))
val List(quarter, dime, nickel, penny) = coinValues.indices.toList
// Find the combination that uses the least amount of coins
def leastCoins(amount: Int): Array[Int] =
((List(amount) /: coinValues) {(list, coinValue) =>
val currentAmount = list.head
val numberOfCoins = currentAmount / coinValue
val remainingAmount = currentAmount % coinValue
remainingAmount :: numberOfCoins :: list.tail
}).tail.reverse.toArray
// Helper function. Adjust a certain amount of coins by
// adding or subtracting coins of each type; this could
// be made to receive a list of adjustments, but for so
// few types of coins, it's not worth it.
def adjust(base: Array[Int],
quarters: Int,
dimes: Int,
nickels: Int,
pennies: Int): Array[Int] =
Array(base(quarter) + quarters,
base(dime) + dimes,
base(nickel) + nickels,
base(penny) + pennies)
// We decrease the amount of quarters by one this way
def decreaseQuarter(base: Array[Int]): Array[Int] =
adjust(base, -1, +2, +1, 0)
// Dimes are decreased this way
def decreaseDime(base: Array[Int]): Array[Int] =
adjust(base, 0, -1, +2, 0)
// And here is how we decrease Nickels
def decreaseNickel(base: Array[Int]): Array[Int] =
adjust(base, 0, 0, -1, +5)
// This will help us find the proper decrease function
val decrease = Map(quarter -> decreaseQuarter _,
dime -> decreaseDime _,
nickel -> decreaseNickel _)
// Given a base amount of coins of each type, and the type of coin,
// we'll produce a list of coin amounts for each quantity of that particular
// coin type, up to the "base" amount
def coinSpan(base: Array[Int], whichCoin: Int) =
(List(base) /: (0 until base(whichCoin)).toList) { (list, _) =>
decrease(whichCoin)(list.head) :: list
}
// Generate a pretty string
def coinsString(base: Array[Int]) = (
base
zip coinNames // join with names
map (t => (if (t._1 != 1) (t._1, t._2._2) else (t._1, t._2._1))) // correct for number
map (t => t._1 + " " + t._2)
mkString " "
)
// So, get a base amount, compute a list for all quarters variations of that base,
// then, for each combination, compute all variations of dimes, and then repeat
// for all variations of nickels.
def allCombinations(amount: Int) = {
val base = leastCoins(amount)
val allQuarters = coinSpan(base, quarter)
val allDimes = allQuarters flatMap (base => coinSpan(base, dime))
val allNickels = allDimes flatMap (base => coinSpan(base, nickel))
allNickels map coinsString mkString "\n"
}
Vì vậy, với 37 xu, ví dụ:
scala> println(allCombinations(37))
0 quarter 0 dimes 0 nickels 37 pennies
0 quarter 0 dimes 1 nickel 32 pennies
0 quarter 0 dimes 2 nickels 27 pennies
0 quarter 0 dimes 3 nickels 22 pennies
0 quarter 0 dimes 4 nickels 17 pennies
0 quarter 0 dimes 5 nickels 12 pennies
0 quarter 0 dimes 6 nickels 7 pennies
0 quarter 0 dimes 7 nickels 2 pennies
0 quarter 1 dime 0 nickels 27 pennies
0 quarter 1 dime 1 nickel 22 pennies
0 quarter 1 dime 2 nickels 17 pennies
0 quarter 1 dime 3 nickels 12 pennies
0 quarter 1 dime 4 nickels 7 pennies
0 quarter 1 dime 5 nickels 2 pennies
0 quarter 2 dimes 0 nickels 17 pennies
0 quarter 2 dimes 1 nickel 12 pennies
0 quarter 2 dimes 2 nickels 7 pennies
0 quarter 2 dimes 3 nickels 2 pennies
0 quarter 3 dimes 0 nickels 7 pennies
0 quarter 3 dimes 1 nickel 2 pennies
1 quarter 0 dimes 0 nickels 12 pennies
1 quarter 0 dimes 1 nickel 7 pennies
1 quarter 0 dimes 2 nickels 2 pennies
1 quarter 1 dime 0 nickels 2 pennies
