问题:比如我有一个数组(元素个数为0哈),希望添加进去元素不能重复。拿到这样一个问题,我可能会快速的写下代码,这里数组用ArrayList.
private static void testListSet(){ Listarrays = new ArrayList (){ @Override public boolean add(String e) { for(String str:this){ if(str.equals(e)){ System.out.println("add failed !!! duplicate element"); return false; }else{ System.out.println("add successed !!!"); } } return super.add(e); } }; arrays.add("a");arrays.add("b");arrays.add("c");arrays.add("b"); for(String e:arrays) System.out.print(e); }
这里我什么都不关,只关心在数组添加元素的时候做下判断(当然添加数组元素只用add方法),是否已存在相同元素,如果数组中不存在这个元素,就添 加到这个数组中,反之亦然。这样写可能简单,但是面临庞大数组时就显得笨拙:有100000元素的数组天家一个元素,难道要调用100000次equal 吗?这里是个基础。
问题:加入已经有一些元素的数组了,怎么删除这个数组里重复的元素呢?
大家知道java中集合总的可以分为两大类:List与Set。List类的集合里元素要求有序但可以重复,而Set类的集合里元素要求无序但 不能重复。那么这里就可以考虑利用Set这个特性把重复元素删除不就达到目的了,毕竟用系统里已有的算法要优于自己现写的算法吧。
public static void removeDuplicate(Listlist){ HashSet set = new HashSet (list); list.clear(); list.addAll(set); } private static People[] ObjData = new People[]{ new People(0, "a"),new People(1, "b"),new People(0, "a"),new People(2, "a"),new People(3, "c"), };
public class People{ private int id; private String name; public People(int id,String name){ this.id = id; this.name = name; } @Override public String toString() { return ("id = "+id+" , name "+name); } }
上面的代码,用了一个自定义的People类,当我添加相同的对象时候(指的是含有相同的数据内容),调用removeDuplicate方法发现这样并 不能解决实际问题,仍然存在相同的对象。那么HashSet里是怎么判断像个对象是否相同的呢?打开HashSet源码可以发现:每次往里面添加数据的时 候,就必须要调用add方法:
@Override public boolean add(E object) { return backingMap.put(object, this) == null; }
这里的backingMap也就是HashSet维护的数据,它用了一个很巧妙的方法,把每次添加的Object当作HashMap里面的KEY,本身 HashSet对象当作VALUE。这样就利用了Hashmap里的KEY唯一性,自然而然的HashSet的数据不会重复。但是真正的是否有重复数据, 就得看HashMap里的怎么判断两个KEY是否相同。
@Override public V put(K key, V value) { if (key == null) { return putValueForNullKey(value); } int hash = secondaryHash(key.hashCode()); HashMapEntry[] tab = table; int index = hash & (tab.length - 1); for (HashMapEntry e = tab[index]; e != null; e = e.next) { if (e.hash == hash && key.equals(e.key)) { preModify(e); V oldValue = e.value; e.value = value; return oldValue; } } // No entry for (non-null) key is present; create one modCount++; if (size++ > threshold) { tab = doubleCapacity(); index = hash & (tab.length - 1); } addNewEntry(key, value, hash, index); return null; }
总的来说,这里实现的思路是:遍历hashmap里的元素,如果元素的hashcode相等(事实上还要对hashcode做一次处理),然后去判断 KEY的eqaul方法。如果这两个条件满足,那么就是不同元素。那这里如果数组里的元素类型是自定义的话,要利用Set的机制,那就得自己实现 equal与hashmap(这里hashmap算法就不详细介绍了,我也就理解一点)方法了:
public class People{ private int id; // private String name; public People(int id,String name){ this.id = id; this.name = name; } @Override public String toString() { return ("id = "+id+" , name "+name); } public int getId() { return id; } public void setId(int id) { this.id = id; } public String getName() { return name; } public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } @Override public boolean equals(Object obj) { if(!(obj instanceof People)) return false; People o = (People)obj; if(id == o.getId()&&name.equals(o.getName())) return true; else return false; } @Override public int hashCode() { // TODO Auto-generated method stub return id; //return super.hashCode(); }}
这里在调用removeDuplicate(list)方法就不会出现两个相同的people了。
好吧,这里就测试它们的性能吧:
