[LeetCode] 387. First Unique Character in a String 字符串的第一个唯一字符

Given a string, find the first non-repeating character in it and return it's index. If it doesn't exist, return -1.

Examples:

s = "leetcode"
return 0.

s = "loveleetcode",
return 2.

Note: You may assume the string contain only lowercase letters.

给一个字符串，找出第一个不重复的字符，返回它的index，如果不存在，返回-1。假设字符都是小写字母。

解法1: 暴力搜索， T：O(n^2)

解法2: HashMap，第一次遍历每一个字符，统计每种字符出现的次数。第二次遍历，找到第一出现的字符次数为1的字符。

解法3: int [26]数组，由于只有26个字母，所以可以用数组来统计出现的个数。

解法4: 循环26个字母，统计每个字母出现次数为1的字母，写入按出现的index排序的数组。然后取数组里最前面的那个或者为空时是-1

Java: Brute Force

class Solution {
    public static int firstUniqChar(String s){
        for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
            boolean isUnique = true;
            for (int j = 0; j < s.length(); j++) {
                if (i != j && s.charAt(i) == s.charAt(j)){
                    isUnique = false;
                    break;
                }
            }
            if (isUnique) return i;
        }
        return -1;
    }

Java:

class Solution {

        Map<Character, Integer> charMap = new HashMap<>(s.length()); //预先分配大小,避免扩容性能影响
        for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
            if (!charMap.containsKey(s.charAt(i))){
                charMap.put(s.charAt(i), 1);
            }else {
                charMap.put(s.charAt(i), charMap.get(s.charAt(i))+1);
            }
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
            if (charMap.get(s.charAt(i)) == 1){
                return i;
