The string "PAYPALISHIRING"
is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)
P A H N
A P L S I I G
Y I R
And then read line by line: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"
Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:
string convert(string text, int nRows);
convert("PAYPALISHIRING", 3)
should return "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"
.
/**
* @param {string} s
* @param {number} numRows
* @return {string}
*/
var convert = function(s, numRows) {
var y=0;
var storeArr=[];
if(numRows==1){
return s;
}
for(var i=0;i<s.length;i++){
storeArr[y]=(storeArr[y]||"")+""+s[i];
y==0?(flag=true):"";
y==(numRows-1)?(flag=false):"";
flag?y++:y--;
}
return storeArr.join("");
};
