Problem Description

Design a data structure that supports adding new words and finding if a string matches any previously added string.

Implement the WordDictionary class:

• WordDictionary() Initializes the object.
• void addWord(word) Adds word to the data structure, it can be matched later.
• bool search(word) Returns true if there is any string in the data structure that matches word or false otherwise. word may contain dots '.' where dots can be matched with any letter.

Examples

Example:

Input
["WordDictionary","addWord","addWord","addWord","search","search","search","search"]
[[],["bad"],["dad"],["mad"],["pad"],["bad"],[".ad"],["b.."]]
Output
[null,null,null,null,false,true,true,true]

Explanation
WordDictionary wordDictionary = new WordDictionary();
wordDictionary.addWord("bad");
wordDictionary.addWord("dad");
wordDictionary.addWord("mad");
wordDictionary.search("pad"); // return False
wordDictionary.search("bad"); // return True
wordDictionary.search(".ad"); // return True
wordDictionary.search("b.."); // return True

Constraints:

• 1 <= word.length <= 25
• word in addWord consists of lowercase English letters.
• word in search consist of '.' or lowercase English letters.
• There will be at most 3 dots in word for search queries.
• At most $10^4$ calls will be made to addWord and search.

解析

題目要設計一個資料結構 WordDictionary，內部需要實作以下方法

1. Constructor: 用來建構 WordDictionary
2. addWord(word string): 用來新增 word 到 WordDictionary
3. search(word string): 用來搜尋 word 是否已經存在 WordDictionary
