Number of ways to form a given String from the given set of Strings

Given a string str and an array of strings dictionary[], the task is to find the number of ways str can be formed as a concatenation of strings (any number of times) in a dictionary[].

Examples:

Input:  str = abab,  dictionary[] = { a, b, ab }
Output: 4
Explanation: There are 4 ways to form string str

  • a + b + a + b
  • ab + a + b
  • a + b + ab
  • ab + ab

Input:  str = geeks, dictionary[] = { geeks, for, geek }
Output: 1

Approach: The problem can be solved based on the following idea:

Use Trie data structure to store the strings of a given set in reverse order and count[] where count(i) denotes the number of ways to form string str[0….i]
For every index i, if str[ j…….i ] is found in trie => count(i) += count(j – 1), j: from i to 0

Follow the steps mentioned below to implement the idea:

  • Reverse the strings of a given set dictionary[], and insert them into a trie.
  • Run loop i: from 0 to N – 1 for count[], where count(i) denotes the number of ways to form string str[0….i].
    • Run loop j: from i to 0, conceptually denotes a temporary string str[j….i]
    • Correspondingly maintain the pointer ptr which denotes that prefix str[j+1….i] is found in a trie.
    • character ch = s[j],
      • if( ptr -> children[ch – ‘a’] == nullptr) it means str[j…i] is not found and break the loop.
      • if( ptr -> endOfWord == true)   count(i) += count(j – 1).
  • Return count(n – 1) as an answer.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ code to implement the approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
const int alphabet_size = 26;
 
// Trie data structure
struct Trie {
    bool endOfWord = false;
    Trie* children[alphabet_size];
    Trie()
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < alphabet_size; i++)
            children[i] = nullptr;
    }
};
 
// Root of trie
Trie* root;
 
// Inserting the strings into trie
void insert(string s)
{
    int n = s.size();
    Trie* prev = root;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        if (prev->children[s[i] - 'a'] == nullptr) {
            Trie* temp = new Trie;
            prev->children[s[i] - 'a'] = temp;
        }
        prev = prev->children[s[i] - 'a'];
    }
    prev->endOfWord = true;
}
 
// Function to find number of ways
// of forming string str
int waysOfFormingString(string& str)
{
    int n = str.size();
 
    // Count[] to store the answer
    // of prefix string str[0....i]
    vector<int> count(n, 0);
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        Trie* ptr = root;
        for (int j = i; j >= 0; j--) {
            char ch = str[j];
 
            // If not found, break
            // out from loop
            if (ptr->children[ch - 'a'] == nullptr)
                break;
            ptr = ptr->children[ch - 'a'];
 
            // String found, update the
            // count(i)
            if (ptr->endOfWord == true)
                count[i] += j > 0 ? count[j - 1] : 1;
        }
    }
    return count[n - 1];
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    string str = "abab";
 
    string dictionary[] = { "a", "b", "ab" };
    int m = 3;
    root = new Trie;
 
    // Construct trie
    for (int i = 0; i < m; i++) {
        reverse(dictionary[i].begin(), dictionary[i].end());
        insert(dictionary[i]);
    }
 
    // Function call
    cout << waysOfFormingString(str) << endl;
 
    return 0;

Time Complexity: O(N * N) 
Auxiliary Space: O(M)

 

Another Approach: The problem can be solved based on the following idea:

Using polynomial hashing, the hash value of any substring of a string str can be calculated in O(1) time after an O(n) time preprocessing.

The fact that there are at most O(?m) distinct string lengths if total length of all strings in dictionary[] is m.

count[] where count(i) denotes the number of ways to form string str[0….i]

For every index i,

if str[ j…….i ] is found in diciionary[] => count(i) += count(j – 1), j: from i to 0

Follow the steps mentioned below to implement the idea:

  • /archive/string-hashing-using-polynomial-rolling-hash-function/
  • Construct a map of set hash_grp that contains all hash values of the strings in the dictionary[] grouped according to the string’s length.
  • Construct an array hashed_arr[] that stores the hashed values of all prefixes of string str.
  • When calculating a value of count(i), we go through all values of len such that there is a string of length len in the dictionary[].
    • calculate the hash value of s[i ? len +1………i] and check if it belongs to hashed_grp[len].
    • hashed_arr[j……..i] * pj  = hashed_arr[0……i] – hashed_arr[0……j – 1], where p is an arbitrary constant integer.
    • count(i) += count(j – 1).
  • Return count(n – 1) as an answer.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ code to implement the approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
long long p = 31, m = 1e9 + 7;
 
//x riased to y

    while (y > 0) {
  
        // If y is odd, multiply x with result
        if (y % 2 == 1)
            res = (res * x)%mod;
  
        // y = y/2
        y = y >> 1;
       
        // Change x to x^2
        x = (x * x)%mod;
    }
    return res % mod;

           if(i + 1 < len) break;
            
          //calculating hash[j....i]
           int p_pow = power(p, i - len + 1, m);
            
           int hashed_value = (i+1 != len) ?

Output

Time Complexity: O(N * ?M)

Auxiliary Space: O(N + ?M)

M is the total length of all strings in a set and N is the length of a given string.
