HDU 1501 Zipper 【DFS+剪枝】

Problem Description

Given three strings, you are to determine whether the third string can be formed by combining the characters in the first two strings. The first two strings can be mixed arbitrarily, but each must stay in its original order.

For example, consider forming “tcraete” from “cat” and “tree”:

String A: cat

String B: tree

String C: tcraete

As you can see, we can form the third string by alternating characters from the two strings. As a second example, consider forming “catrtee” from “cat” and “tree”:

String A: cat

String B: tree

String C: catrtee

Finally, notice that it is impossible to form “cttaree” from “cat” and “tree”.

Input

The first line of input contains a single positive integer from 1 through 1000. It represents the number of data sets to follow. The processing for each data set is identical. The data sets appear on the following lines, one data set per line.

For each data set, the line of input consists of three strings, separated by a single space. All strings are composed of upper and lower case letters only. The length of the third string is always the sum of the lengths of the first two strings. The first two strings will have lengths between 1 and 200 characters, inclusive.

Output

For each data set, print:

Data set n: yes

if the third string can be formed from the first two, or

Data set n: no

if it cannot. Of course n should be replaced by the data set number. See the sample output below for an example.

Sample Input

3

cat tree tcraete

cat tree catrtee

cat tree cttaree

Sample Output

Data set 1: yes

Data set 2: yes

Data set 3: no

题意

给出三串字符串 a, b, c 判断 字符串C 中的每个字符 是不是分别从a, b 字符串中 顺序取出的。也就是说 从c字符串中 按顺序 能不能取出 a ,b 字符串 可以不连续 但顺序不能变

思路

如果给出样例满足题意，那么必然满足字符串C 的最后一位肯定是 字符串A或者字符串B的最后一位 ，然后再往前找，那么从前往后找也是一样的。就可以用DFS去搜，但是需要剪枝。不然TLE
