# 140.Word-Break-II

## 140. Word Break II

## 题目地址

<https://leetcode.com/problems/word-break-ii/>

## 题目描述

```
Given a non-empty string s and a dictionary wordDict containing a list of non-empty words, add spaces in s to construct a sentence where each word is a valid dictionary word. Return all such possible sentences.

Note:
The same word in the dictionary may be reused multiple times in the segmentation.
You may assume the dictionary does not contain duplicate words.
Example 1:

Input:
s = "catsanddog"
wordDict = ["cat", "cats", "and", "sand", "dog"]
Output:
[
  "cats and dog",
  "cat sand dog"
]
```

### Approach 1: Recursion with memoization

**Complexity Analysis**

* Time complexity : &#x4F;*(\_n^\_3). Size of recursion tree can go up to n^2*. The creation of list takes *n* time.
* Space complexity : O(n^3).The depth of the recursion tree can go up to *n* and each activation record can contains a string list of size *n*.

```java
class Solution {
    public List<String> wordBreak(String s, List<String> wordDict) {
        HashMap<Integer, List<String>> memo = new HashMap();

        return dfs(s, 0, wordDict, memo);
    }

    private List<String> dfs(String s, Integer start, List<String> wordDict, HashMap<Integer, List<String>> memo) {
        if (memo.get(start) != null) {
            return memo.get(start);
        }
        List<String> ans = new LinkedList();
        if (start == s.length()) {
            ans.add("");
            return ans;
        }

        for (String word: wordDict) {
            for (int end = start + 1; end <= s.length(); end++) {
                String w = s.substring(start, end);
                if (word.equals(w)) {

                    List<String> list = dfs(s, end, wordDict, memo);
                    for (String str: list) {
                        String seq = word + (str.length() > 0 ? " " : "") + str;
                        ans.add(seq);
                    }

                }
            }
        }
        memo.put(start, ans);
        return ans;
    }
}
```

### Approach #3 Using Dynamic Programming (Time Limit Exceeded)

**Complexity Analysis**

* Time complexity : O\_(\_n^3). Two loops are required to fill dp array and one loop for appending a list .
* Space complexity : O(n^3). Length of dp array is *n* and each value of dp array contains a list of string i.e. n^2 space.

```java
class Solution {
  public List<String> wordBreak(String s, Set<String> wordDict) {
    LinkedList<String>[] dp = new LinkedList[s.length() + 1];
    LinkedList<String> initial = new LinkedList();
    initial.add("");
    dp[0] = initial;
    for (int i = 1; i <= s.length(); i++) {
      LinkedList<String> list = new LinkedList<>();
      for (int j = 0; j < i; j++) {
        if (dp[j].size() > 0 && wordDict.contains(s.substring(j, i))) {
          for (String l : dp[j]) {
            String w = l + (l.equals("") ? "" : " ");
            list.add(w + s.substring(j, i));
          }
        }
      }
      dp[i] = list;
    }

    return dp[s.length()];
  }
}
```

Fixed the DP solution, no "Time Limit Exceeded" :)

```java
class Solution {
  public List<String> wordBreak(String s, List<String> wordDict) {
    Set<String> wordSet = new HashSet<>(wordDict);
    // Check if there is at least one possible sentence
    boolean[] dp1 = new boolean[s.length() + 1];
    dp1[0] = true;
    for (int i = 1; i <= s.length(); i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < i; j++) {
            if (dp1[j] && wordSet.contains(s.substring(j, i))) {
                dp1[i] = true;
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    // We are done if there isn't a valid sentence at all
    if (!dp1[s.length()]) {
        return new ArrayList<String>();
    }

    // Build the results with dynamic programming
    LinkedList<String>[] dp = new LinkedList[s.length() + 1];
    LinkedList<String> initial = new LinkedList<>();
    initial.add("");
    dp[0] = initial;
    for (int i = 1; i <= s.length(); i++) {
        LinkedList<String> list = new LinkedList<>();
        for (int j = 0; j < i; j++) {
            if (dp[j].size() > 0 && wordSet.contains(s.substring(j, i))) {
                for (String l : dp[j]) {
                    list.add(l + (l.equals("") ? "" : " ") + s.substring(j, i));
                }
            }
        }
        dp[i] = list;
    }
    return dp[s.length()];
  }
}
```

### Approach #3 : Backtrace

```java
class Solution {
  public List<String> wordBreak(String s, List<String> wordDict) {
      return backtrace(s, wordDict, new HashMap<String, LinkedList<String>>());
    }

  List<String> backtrace(String s, List<String> wordDict, HashMap<String, LinkedList<String>> map) {
    if (map.containsKey(s))    return map.get(s);

    LinkedList<String> res = new LinkedList<String>();
    if (s.length() == 0) {
      res.add("");
      return res;
    }

    for (String word : wordDict) {
      if (s.startsWith(word)) {
        List<String> sublist = backtrace(s.substring(word.length()), wordDict, map);
        for (String sub : sublist) {
          res.add(word + (sub.isEmpty() ? "" : " ") + sub);
        }
      }
    }

    map.put(s, res);
    return res;
  }
}
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wentao-shao.gitbook.io/leetcode/graph-search/140.word-break-ii.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
