[Leetcode] ZigZag Conversion

The string "PAYPALISHIRING" is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)

P   A   H   N
A P L S I I G
Y   I   R

And then read line by line: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"

Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:

string convert(string text, int nRows);

convert("PAYPALISHIRING", 3) should return "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR".

注意如果用push_back的话会超内存,因为每次push_back后如果空间不够则新空间会是原来的两倍,为了避免这种情况还是直接定义长度为len的字符串吧。题目根本就没说清楚嘛, 下面是n=4时的结果:

P     I     N
A   L S   I G
Y A   H R
P I
