443. String Compression

本文主要是介绍443. String Compression，对大家解决编程问题具有一定的参考价值，需要的程序猿们随着小编来一起学习吧！

Given an array of characters chars, compress it using the following algorithm:

Begin with an empty string s. For each group of consecutive repeating characters in chars:

• If the group's length is 1, append the character to s.
• Otherwise, append the character followed by the group's length.

The compressed string s should not be returned separately, but instead be stored in the input character array chars. Note that group lengths that are 10 or longer will be split into multiple characters in chars.

After you are done modifying the input array, return the new length of the array.

You must write an algorithm that uses only constant extra space.

Example 1:

Input: chars = ["a","a","b","b","c","c","c"]
Output: Return 6, and the first 6 characters of the input array should be: ["a","2","b","2","c","3"]
Explanation: The groups are "aa", "bb", and "ccc". This compresses to "a2b2c3".

Example 2:

Input: chars = ["a"]
Output: Return 1, and the first character of the input array should be: ["a"]
Explanation: The only group is "a", which remains uncompressed since it's a single character.

Example 3:

Input: chars = ["a","b","b","b","b","b","b","b","b","b","b","b","b"]
Output: Return 4, and the first 4 characters of the input array should be: ["a","b","1","2"].
Explanation: The groups are "a" and "bbbbbbbbbbbb". This compresses to "ab12".

Example 4:

Input: chars = ["a","a","a","b","b","a","a"]
Output: Return 6, and the first 6 characters of the input array should be: ["a","3","b","2","a","2"].
Explanation: The groups are "aaa", "bb", and "aa". This compresses to "a3b2a2". Note that each group is independent even if two groups have the same character.

Constraints:

• 1 <= chars.length <= 2000
• chars[i] is a lower-case English letter, upper-case English letter, digit, or symbol.

class Solution {
    public int compress(char[] chars) {
      int slow = 0, fast = 0;
        while(fast < chars.length) {
            int cnt = 0;
            char c = chars[fast];
            while(fast < chars.length && c == chars[fast]) {
                fast++;
                cnt++;
            }
            chars[slow++] = c;
            if(cnt != 1) {
                for(char ch : (""+cnt).toCharArray()) chars[slow++] = ch;
            }
        }
        return slow;
    }
}

String相关，用快慢指针，快指针遍历string，慢指针负责填空。

每次循环都是cnt重置，然后获得当前的char，如果后面有相等的就一直往后面fast++直到不相等。然后慢指针填空当前的char，然后填cnt。
