Group Anagrams(Medium)
Given an array of strings, group anagrams together.
For example, given: ["eat", "tea", "tan", "ate", "nat", "bat"],
Return
[
["ate", "eat","tea"],
["nat","tan"],
["bat"]
]
- For the return value, each inner list's elements must follow the lexicographic order.
- All inputs will be in lower-case.
public List<List<String>> groupAnagrams(String[] strs) {
List<List<String>> ans = new ArrayList<>();
if (strs==null || strs.length==0) { return ans; }
Arrays.sort(strs);
Map<String, List<String>> map = new HashMap<>();
for (String s: strs) {
char[] sCharArr = s.toCharArray();
Arrays.sort(sCharArr);
String key = new String(sCharArr);
List<String> list = map.get(key);
if (list == null) {
List<String> temp = new ArrayList<>();
temp.add(s);
map.put(key, temp);
} else { list.add(s); }
}
for (List<String> l : map.values()) {
Collections.sort(l);
ans.add(l);
}
return ans;
