/* Author: King, wangjingui@outlook.com Date: Dec 15, 2014 Problem: Compare Version Numbers Difficulty: Easy Source: https://oj.leetcode.com/problems/compare-version-numbers/ Notes: Compare two version numbers version1 and version1. If version1 > version2 return 1, if version1 < version2 return -1, otherwise return 0. You may assume that the version strings are non-empty and contain only digits and the . character. The . character does not represent a decimal point and is used to separate number sequences. For instance, 2.5 is not "two and a half" or "half way to version three", it is the fifth second-level revision of the second first-level revision. Here is an example of version numbers ordering: 0.1 < 1.1 < 1.2 < 13.37 Solution: ... */ public class Solution { public int compareVersion(String version1, String version2) { long a = 0, b =0; int v1len = version1.length(), v2len = version2.length(); int i = 0, j = 0; while (i < v1len || j < v2len) { a = 0; b =0; while (i < v1len && version1.charAt(i) != '.') { a = a * 10 + version1.charAt(i) - '0'; ++i; } ++i; while (j < v2len && version2.charAt(j) != '.') { b = b * 10 + version2.charAt(j) - '0'; ++j; } ++j; if (a > b) return 1; if (a < b) return -1; } return 0; } }
