Leetcode: Flatten Nested List Iterator

时间:2021-12-13 11:33:32
Given a nested list of integers, implement an iterator to flatten it.

Each element is either an integer, or a list -- whose elements may also be integers or other lists.

Example 1:
Given the list [[1,1],2,[1,1]], By calling next repeatedly until hasNext returns false, the order of elements returned by next should be: [1,1,2,1,1]. Example 2:
Given the list [1,[4,[6]]], By calling next repeatedly until hasNext returns false, the order of elements returned by next should be: [1,4,6].

非常精巧地使用stack。push all the nestedList into the stack from back to front,so when we pop the stack, it returns the very first element

执行hasNext()的时候,如果peek()是integer, return true;否则是一个List<NestedInteger>, 则flatten这个list,同样的,把list里的NestedInteger倒序push入栈
