6. ZigZag Conversion

题面

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 s, int numRows);

样例

Example 1:

Input: s = "PAYPALISHIRING", numRows = 3
Output: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"

Example 2:

Input: s = "PAYPALISHIRING", numRows = 4
Output: "PINALSIGYAHRPI"
Explanation:

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

 //思路2：官方题解
 //1. 把每一行当作一个字符串进行处理，vector<string> 当作容器；
 //2. 遍历字符串，为各行字符串添加元素；
 //3. 行序号的变换（+1/-1）依靠一个bool变量控制，每当到达第一行/最后一行，bool变量取反 
 //时间：O(n)
 //空间：O(n)
