【leetcode】(python) 28. Implement

Implement strStr().

Return the index of the first occurrence of needle in haystack, or -1 if needle is not part of haystack.
Example 1:

Input: haystack = "hello", needle = "ll"
Output: 2

Example 2:

Input: haystack = "aaaaa", needle = "bba"
Output: -1

Clarification:

What should we return when needle is an empty string? This is a great question to ask during an interview.

For the purpose of this problem, we will return 0 when needle is an empty string. This is consistent to C's strstr() and Java's indexOf().

解题大意:
返回neelde在haystack中第一次出现的索引位置，如果不是haystack的一部分，则返回-1。

解题思路：
看完题目就想到了KMP算法，然后开始动手实现。后来发现python语言有专门的find()函数用来查找子串。

class Solution:
    def strStr(self, haystack: str, needle: str) -> int:
          return haystack.find(needle)

这样就解决了，感觉异常简单。其实也可以用python的切片方法来实现find()的查找功能，值得注意的是遍历range(n)的遍历范围是0~n-1,这里i的范围为[0,m-n]闭区间。
时间复杂度是O(m)

class Solution:
    def strStr(self, haystack: str, needle: str) -> int:
        m = len(haystack)
        n = len(needle)
        for i in range(m-n+1):
            if haystack[i:i+n] == needle:
                return i
        return -1
