639 Decode Ways II

1. Question

A message containing letters fromA-Zis being encoded to numbers using the following mapping way:

'A' -> 1
'B' -> 2
...
'Z' -> 26

Beyond that, now the encoded string can also contain the character '*', which can be treated as one of the numbers from 1 to 9.

Given the encoded message containing digits and the character '*', return the total number of ways to decode it.

Also, since the answer may be very large, you should return the output mod 109+ 7.

Example 1:

Input: "*"
Output: 9
Explanation:
The encoded message can be decoded to the string: "A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I".

Example 2:

Input: "1*"
Output: 9 + 9 = 18

Note:

  1. The length of the input string will fit in range [1, 10^5].

  2. The input string will only contain the character '*' and digits '0' - '9'.

2. Implementation

(1) DP

3. Time & Space Complexity

时间复杂度O(n), 空间复杂度O(1)
