# Evaluate Division

> Equations are given in the format A / B = k, where A and B are variables represented as strings, and k is a real number (floating point number). Given some queries, return the answers. If the answer does not exist, return -1.0.
>
> Example:
>
> Given a / b = 2.0, b / c = 3.0.
>
> queries are: a / c = ?, b / a = ?, a / e = ?, a / a = ?, x / x = ? .
>
> return \[6.0, 0.5, -1.0, 1.0, -1.0 ].
>
> The input is: vector\<pair\<string, string>> equations, vector\<double>& values, vector\<pair\<string, string>> queries , where equations.size() == values.size(), and the values are positive. This represents the equations. Return vector\<double>.
>
> According to the example above:
>
> equations = \[ \["a", "b"], \["b", "c"] ],
>
> values = \[2.0, 3.0],
>
> queries = \[ \["a", "c"], \["b", "a"], \["a", "e"], \["a", "a"], \["x", "x"] ].
>
> The input is always valid. You may assume that evaluating the queries will result in no division by zero and there is no contradiction.

## Thoughts

给一系列变量之间相除的结果，返回给定两个变量之间相除的结果。根据例子写一下就知道比如求a/c, 需要a/b \* b/c, 要先找到a/b, 再找到b/c 因此是道搜索题。\
别忘了divisor/dividend = 1/（dividend/divisor）也加入已知eqs中。

## Code

```cpp
/*
 * @lc app=leetcode id=399 lang=cpp
 *
 * [399] Evaluate Division
 */
class Solution {
private:
    double dfs(const string &a, const string &t, unordered_map<string, unordered_map<string, double>> &m, unordered_set<string> &visited) {
        if (!m.count(a) || !m.count(t)) return -1;
        if (a == t) return 1;
        visited.insert(a);
        for (const auto &p : m[a]) {
            const string &b = p.first;
            if (!visited.count(b)) {
                const auto r = dfs(b, t, m, visited);
                if (r != -1) return r * m[a][b];
            }
        }
        return -1;
    }
public:
    vector<double> calcEquation(vector<vector<string>>& equations, vector<double>& values, vector<vector<string>>& queries) {
        unordered_map<string, unordered_map<string, double>> m;
        for (int i = 0; i < equations.size(); ++i) {
            const auto &eq = equations[i];
            m[eq[0]][eq[1]] = values[i];
            m[eq[1]][eq[0]] = 1 / values[i]; 
        } 
        const int N = queries.size();
        vector<double> res(N);
        unordered_set<string> visited;
        for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
            res[i] = dfs(queries[i][0], queries[i][1], m, visited);
            visited.clear();
        }
        return res;
    }
};


```

## Analysis

Errors:\
1\. dfs在判断结果是否-1前就乘了

query的每次时间复杂度O(N), N为equations数目.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://hao-fu-1.gitbook.io/oj/exhaustive-search/yun-suan/evaluate-division.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
