Reconstruct Itinerary
Given a list of airline tickets represented by pairs of departure and arrival airports [from, to]
, reconstruct the itinerary in order. All of the tickets belong to a man who departs from JFK
. Thus, the itinerary must begin with JFK
.
Note:
If there are multiple valid itineraries, you should return the itinerary that has the smallest lexical order when read as a single string. For example, the itinerary
["JFK", "LGA"]
has a smaller lexical order than["JFK", "LGB"]
.All airports are represented by three capital letters (IATA code).
You may assume all tickets form at least one valid itinerary.
Example 1:
Input: [["MUC", "LHR"], ["JFK", "MUC"], ["SFO", "SJC"], ["LHR", "SFO"]]
Output: ["JFK", "MUC", "LHR", "SFO", "SJC"]
Example 2:
Input: [["JFK","SFO"],["JFK","ATL"],["SFO","ATL"],["ATL","JFK"],["ATL","SFO"]]
Output: ["JFK","ATL","JFK","SFO","ATL","SFO"]
Explanation: Another possible reconstruction is ["JFK","SFO","ATL","JFK","ATL","SFO"].
But it is larger in lexical order.
class Solution {
Map<String, PriorityQueue<String>> graph = new HashMap<>();
List<String> route = new LinkedList();
// Just choose greedily at each port
public List<String> findItinerary(List<List<String>> tickets) {
for (List<String> ticket : tickets)
graph.computeIfAbsent(ticket.get(0), k -> new PriorityQueue()).add(ticket.get(1));
visit("JFK");
return route;
}
void visit(String airport) {
while (graph.containsKey(airport) && !graph.get(airport).isEmpty())
visit(graph.get(airport).poll());
route.add(0, airport);
}
}
