591. Tag Validator

 

Given a string representing a code snippet, you need to implement a tag validator to parse the code and return whether it is valid. A code snippet is valid if all the following rules hold:

 

  1. The code must be wrapped in a valid closed tag. Otherwise, the code is invalid.
  2. A closed tag (not necessarily valid) has exactly the following format : <TAG_NAME>TAG_CONTENT</TAG_NAME>. Among them, <TAG_NAME> is the start tag, and </TAG_NAME> is the end tag. The TAG_NAME in start and end tags should be the same. A closed tag is valid if and only if the TAG_NAME and TAG_CONTENT are valid.
  3. A valid TAG_NAME only contain upper-case letters, and has length in range [1,9]. Otherwise, the TAG_NAMEis invalid.
  4. A valid TAG_CONTENT may contain other valid closed tags, cdata and any characters (see note1) EXCEPTunmatched <, unmatched start and end tag, and unmatched or closed tags with invalid TAG_NAME. Otherwise, the TAG_CONTENT is invalid.
  5. A start tag is unmatched if no end tag exists with the same TAG_NAME, and vice versa. However, you also need to consider the issue of unbalanced when tags are nested.
  6. < is unmatched if you cannot find a subsequent >. And when you find a < or </, all the subsequent characters until the next > should be parsed as TAG_NAME (not necessarily valid).
  7. The cdata has the following format : <![CDATA[CDATA_CONTENT]]>. The range of CDATA_CONTENT is defined as the characters between <![CDATA[ and the first subsequent ]]>.
  8. CDATA_CONTENT may contain any characters. The function of cdata is to forbid the validator to parse CDATA_CONTENT, so even it has some characters that can be parsed as tag (no matter valid or invalid), you should treat it as regular characters.

Valid Code Examples:

Input: "<DIV>This is the first line <![CDATA[<div>]]></DIV>"  

Output: True  

Explanation:   

The code is wrapped in a closed tag : <DIV> and </DIV>.   

The TAG_NAME is valid, the TAG_CONTENT consists of some characters and cdata.   

Although CDATA_CONTENT has unmatched start tag with invalid TAG_NAME, it should be considered as plain text, not parsed as tag.  

So TAG_CONTENT is valid, and then the code is valid. Thus return true.  


Input: "<DIV>>>  ![cdata[]] <![CDATA[<div>]>]]>]]>>]</DIV>"  

Output: True  

Explanation:  

We first separate the code into : start_tag|tag_content|end_tag.  

start_tag -> "<DIV>"  

end_tag -> "</DIV>"  

tag_content could also be separated into : text1|cdata|text2.  

text1 -> ">>  ![cdata[]] "  

cdata -> "<![CDATA[<div>]>]]>", where the CDATA_CONTENT is "<div>]>"  

text2 -> "]]>>]"  


The reason why start_tag is NOT "<DIV>>>" is because of the rule 6.
The reason why cdata is NOT "<![CDATA[<div>]>]]>]]>" is because of the rule 7.

 

Invalid Code Examples:

Input: "<A>  <B> </A>   </B>"
Output: False
Explanation: Unbalanced. If "<A>" is closed, then "<B>" must be unmatched, and vice versa.

Input: "<DIV>  div tag is not closed  <DIV>"
Output: False

Input: "<DIV>  unmatched <  </DIV>"
Output: False

Input: "<DIV> closed tags with invalid tag name  <b>123</b> </DIV>"
Output: False

Input: "<DIV> unmatched tags with invalid tag name  </1234567890> and <CDATA[[]]>  </DIV>"
Output: False

Input: "<DIV>  unmatched start tag <B>  and unmatched end tag </C>  </DIV>"
Output: False

 

Note:

  1. For simplicity, you could assume the input code (including the any characters mentioned above) only contain lettersdigits'<','>','/','!','[',']' and ' '.

 

这道题让我们给了我们一个字符串,其实是html的代码,让我们验证其写法是否正确。规定了八条规则,比如说必须是封闭的,标签名必须都是大写,并且不能超过9个字符,还规定了CDATA的一些格式规范,并且给了一些实例,但是说实话,题目中给的这些例子完全不能覆盖OJ中的各种情况,博主这次完全被OJ教育了,每次submit都被OJ打回来,然后分析未通过的test case,修改代码,再提交,再打回,折腾了十几次,终于通过OJ,绿色的 Accepted 出现的那一刹那,无比的快感,这也是博主能坚持到现在的动力之一吧,当然最主要的动力还是大家的支持与鼓励,博主很喜欢跟大家留言互动哈。下面呈上博主fail过的case,并来分析原因:

 

"<![CDATA[wahaha]]]><![CDATA[]> wahaha]]>"  -> False

错误原因:没有以Tag开头

 

"<A><A>/A></A></A>"  -> True

多余的’>’不会影响

 

"<A>  <B> </A>   </B>"  -> False

错误原因:最后一个闭标签只能闭合首标签

 

"<A></A><B></B>"  -> False

错误原因:最后一个闭标签只能闭合首标签

 

"<A><B></B></A>"  -> True

没有content data也没关系

 

"<A>![CDATA[/A>]]></A>"  -> True

CDATA中间的内容可以是任意字符

 

"123456"  -> False

错误原因:没有标签存在

 

"<A></A>"  -> True

没有content data也没关系

 

"<A></A>>"  -> False

错误原因:末尾存在多余的’>’

 

"<DIV>>>>>>>  ![cdata[]] <![CDATA[<div>]>]]>]]>>]</DIV>"  -> True

注意content data的干扰字符

 

"<AAAAAAAAAA></AAAAAAAAAA>"  -> False

错误原因:标签的字符长度不能超过9个

 

"<a><a></a></a>"  ->  False

错误原因:标签字符必须都是大写

 

"<A><!CDATAA[[123]]></A>"  -> False

错误原因:没有正确的match上”<![CDATA[“,也不能当做标签

 

"!!!<A>123</A>123"  -> False

错误原因:不能以非标签开头

 

"<A>123</A>123"  -> False

错误原因:不能以非标签结尾

 

由于博主的修修补补使得博主自己的代码看起来不elegant,所以博主借鉴了论坛上dengzhizhang大神的解法,果然还是用find函数写起来简洁,而不是用while函数来一个一个的找。下面的代码结构还是比较清晰的,首先对于这种成对匹配的问题肯定是要用栈stack的,就像之前的匹配括号的问题。那么我们来遍历code字符串,首先是判断,如果当前遍历到的字符非首字符,并且栈为空,那么直接返回false。虽然只是短短的一句但其实非常的重要,这句就排除了很多错误情况,比如开头结尾不是标签的情况,以及没有标签的情况,和开头的标签在中间就闭合了情况等等,非常powerful的一句判断。然后我们来处理包含CDATA的情况,当然是要先匹配到”“,如果没找到,直接返回false,找到了点话就继续遍历,顺便把当前遍历的位置移到结束标志符的最后一位上。

如果我们只匹配到了”</“,说明是个结束标签,那么我们用find来找到右尖括号’>’,如果没找到直接返回false,找到了就把tag到内容提出来,然后看此时的stack,如果stack为空,或者栈顶元素不等于tag,直接返回false,否则就将栈顶元素取出。

如果我们只匹配到了”<”,说明是个起始标签,还是要找右尖括号,如果找不到,或者标签的长度为0,或者大于9了,直接返回true。然后遍历标签的每一位,如果不全是大些字母,返回false,否则就把tag压入栈。那么你可能会有疑问,为啥在处理结束标签时,没有这些额外的判断呢,因为结束标签要和栈顶元素比较,栈里的标签肯定都是合法的,所以如果结束标签不合法,那么肯定不相等,也就直接返回false了。最后我们看栈是否为空,如果不为空,说明有未封闭的标签,返回false。参见代码如下:

 

class Solution {
public:
    bool isValid(string code) {
        stack<string> st;
        for (int i = 0; i < code.size(); ++i) {
            if (i > 0 && st.empty()) return false;
            if (code.substr(i, 9) == "<![CDATA[") {
                int j = i + 9;
                i = code.find("]]>", j);
                if (i < 0) return false;
                i += 2;
            } else if (code.substr(i, 2) == "</") {
                int j = i + 2;
                i = code.find(">", j);
                if (i < 0) return false;
                string tag = code.substr(j, i - j);
                if (st.empty() || st.top() != tag) return false;
                st.pop();
            } else if (code.substr(i, 1) == "<") {
                int j = i + 1;
                i = code.find(">", j);
                if (i < 0 || i == j || i - j > 9) return false;
                for (int k = j; k < i; ++k) {
                    if (code[k] < 'A' || code[k] > 'Z') return false;
                }
                string tag = code.substr(j, i - j);
                st.push(tag);
            }
        }
        return st.empty();
    }
};

 

这道题只是判断html里最简单的标签,并没有加上js和css的东西,就已经是个Hard的题目了。论坛看到有大神们用正则匹配来做,代码太简洁了,但是博主看不太懂那个正则表达式,囧~所以没有把那种解法贴上来,大家可以看看zqfan大神的帖子,如果哪位看官大神看懂了,请给博主讲一下,博主可以贴上来供大家参考,多谢~
