44. Wildcard Matching

题目

Given an input string (s) and a pattern (p), implement wildcard pattern matching with support for '?' and '*'.

'?' Matches any single character.
'*' Matches any sequence of characters (including the empty sequence).

The matching should cover the entire input string (not partial).

Note:

• s could be empty and contains only lowercase letters a-z.
• p could be empty and contains only lowercase letters a-z, and characters like ? or *.

Example 1:

Input:
s = "aa"
p = "a"
Output: false
Explanation: "a" does not match the entire string "aa".

Example 2:

Input:
s = "aa"
p = "*"
Output: true
Explanation:`'*' matches any sequence.

Example 3:

Input:
s = "cb"
p = "?a"
Output: false
Explanation:`'?' matches 'c', but the second letter is 'a', which does not match 'b'.

Example 4:

Input:
s = "adceb"
p = "*a*b"
Output: true
Explanation:`The first '*' matches the empty sequence, while the second '*' matches the substring "dce".

Example 5:

Input:
s = "acdcb"
p = "a*c?b"
Output: false

解题思路

注意审题：

1. '?' 可以匹配任意一个字符，但是不能匹配空字符""
2. '*' 可以任意多个字符，包括""
