Description

Given a 2D board and a word, find if the word exists in the grid.

The word can be constructed from letters of sequentially adjacent cell, where "adjacent" cells are those horizontally or vertically neighboring. The same letter cell may not be used more than once.

Example:

board =

[

  ['A','B','C','E'],

  ['S','F','C','S'],

  ['A','D','E','E']

]



Given word = "ABCCED", return true.

Given word = "SEE", return true.

Given word = "ABCB", return false.

 

Constraints:

• board and word consists only of lowercase and uppercase English letters.
• 1 <= board.length <= 200
• 1 <= board[i].length <= 200
• 1 <= word.length <= 10^3

Solutions

Python3

class Solution:
    def exist(self, board: List[List[str]], word: str) -> bool:
        def dfs(i, j, cur):
            if cur == len(word):
                return True
            if i < 0 or i >= m or j < 0 or j >= n or visited[i][j] or word[cur] != board[i][j]:
                return False
            visited[i][j] = True
            next = cur + 1
            res = dfs(i + 1, j, next) or dfs(i - 1, j, next) or dfs(i, j + 1, next) or dfs(i, j - 1, next)
            visited[i][j] = False
            return res
        m, n = len(board), len(board[0])
        visited = [[False for _ in range(n)] for _ in range(m)]
        for i in range(m):
            for j in range(n):
                res = dfs(i, j, 0)
                if res:
                    return True
        return False

Java

class Solution {
    private boolean[][] visited;

    public boolean exist(char[][] board, String word) {
        int m = board.length, n = board[0].length;
        visited = new boolean[m][n];
        char[] chars = word.toCharArray();
        for (int i = 0; i < m; ++i) {
            for (int j = 0; j < n; ++j) {
                boolean res = dfs(board, i, j, chars, 0);
                if (res) return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }

    private boolean dfs(char[][] board, int i, int j, char[] chars, int cur) {
        if (cur == chars.length) return true;
        if (i < 0 || i >= board.length || j < 0 || j >= board[0].length) return false;
        if (visited[i][j] || board[i][j] != chars[cur]) return false;
        visited[i][j] = true;
        int next = cur + 1;
        boolean res = dfs(board, i + 1, j, chars, next)
                || dfs(board, i - 1, j, chars, next)
                || dfs(board, i, j + 1, chars, next)
                || dfs(board, i, j - 1, chars, next);
        visited[i][j] = false;
        return res;
    }
