【LeetCode】36. Valid Sudoku

1.题目描述

Determine if a 9x9 Sudoku board is valid. Only the filled cells need to be validated according to the following rules:

1. Each row must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.

2. Each column must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.

3. Each of the 9 3x3 sub-boxes of the grid must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.

判断一个 9x9 的数独是否有效。只需要根据以下规则，验证已经填入的数字是否有效即可。

数字 1-9 在每一行只能出现一次。
数字 1-9 在每一列只能出现一次。
数字 1-9 在每一个以粗实线分隔的 3x3 宫内只能出现一次。

上图是一个部分填充的有效的数独。

The Sudoku board could be partially filled, where empty cells are filled with the character '.'.

数独部分空格内已填入了数字，空白格用 '.' 表示。

Example 1:

Input:
[
[“5”,”3”,”.”,”.”,”7”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”.”],
[“6”,”.”,”.”,”1”,”9”,”5”,”.”,”.”,”.”],
[“.”,”9”,”8”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”6”,”.”],
[“8”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”6”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”3”],
[“4”,”.”,”.”,”8”,”.”,”3”,”.”,”.”,”1”],
[“7”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”2”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”6”],
[“.”,”6”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”2”,”8”,”.”],
[“.”,”.”,”.”,”4”,”1”,”9”,”.”,”.”,”5”],
[“.”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”8”,”.”,”.”,”7”,”9”]
]
Output: true

Example 2:

Input:
[
[“8”,”3”,”.”,”.”,”7”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”.”],
[“6”,”.”,”.”,”1”,”9”,”5”,”.”,”.”,”.”],
[“.”,”9”,”8”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”6”,”.”],
[“8”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”6”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”3”],
[“4”,”.”,”.”,”8”,”.”,”3”,”.”,”.”,”1”],
[“7”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”2”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”6”],
[“.”,”6”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”2”,”8”,”.”],
[“.”,”.”,”.”,”4”,”1”,”9”,”.”,”.”,”5”],
[“.”,”.”,”.”,”.”,”8”,”.”,”.”,”7”,”9”]
]
Output: false
Explanation: Same as Example 1, except with the 5 in the top left corner being
modified to 8. Since there are two 8’s in the top left 3x3 sub-box, it is invalid.

解释: 除了第一行的第一个数字从 5 改为 8 以外，空格内其他数字均与 示例1 相同。
但由于位于左上角的 3x3 宫内有两个 8 存在, 因此这个数独是无效的。

Note:

• A Sudoku board (partially filled) could be valid but is not necessarily solvable.
• Only the filled cells need to be validated according to the mentioned rules.
• The given board contain only digits 1-9 and the character '.'.
• The given board size is always 9x9.

说明:

一个有效的数独（部分已被填充）不一定是可解的。

只需要根据以上规则，验证已经填入的数字是否有效即可。

给定数独序列只包含数字 1-9 和字符 ‘.’ 。

给定数独永远是 9x9 形式的。

2.Solutions

public boolean isValidSudoku(char[][] board) {
    Set seen = new HashSet();
    for (int i=0; i<9; ++i) {
        for (int j=0; j<9; ++j) {
            char number = board[i][j];
            if (number != '.')
                if (!seen.add(number + " in row " + i) ||
                    !seen.add(number + " in column " + j) ||
                    !seen.add(number + " in block " + i/3 + "-" + j/3))
                    return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}
