Encoded string sequencing method, device and character input method and device

Abstract

The invention provides an encoded string sequencing method and a character input method. The character input method can comprise the following steps: receiving a press key combination inputted by a user; carrying out sequencing output on each encoded string corresponding to the press key combination according to the N-ary relation and / or word frequency among words; receiving the selection of the user to the encoded string, receiving the selection of the user to a candidate item, and outputting a corresponding character. In addition, at least one press key is corresponding to two or more than two encoded characters; a character string corresponding to the encoded string comprises at least two words, and N is bigger than or equal to 2; The invention can select the optimal result from a plurality of possible encoded strings and realizes the optimal sequencing according to the binary or N-ary relation among each word in a longer encoded string and the word frequency or the syllable frequency, thereby reducing the redundant operation brought by that the user needs to manually select a required encoded string for many times due to syncopations, coincident codes and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of input methods, in particular to a method and device for sorting code strings and a text input method and device. Background technique [0002] With the wide application of mobile terminal devices such as mobile phones, there are more and more cases of using numeric keypads for text input. For example, the Chinese Pinyin input method on mobile phones is a typical application. When the user continuously inputs a number string representing pinyin, the digital-to-pinyin function module of the input method can convert it into one of several possible combinations of all pinyin strings. [0003] However, since the mobile phone usually uses a 10-key numeric keypad including 0-9, and usually adopts an 8-key letter key setting scheme, specifically, the 26 letters of a-z are mapped to the 2-9 numeric keys, and each Each number key corresponds to 3 to 4 letters. Therefore, when inputting pinyin, generally there wi...

Problems solved by technology

[0011] Above-mentioned input scheme is in short sentence or phrase input, and its shortcoming is very obvious, because the pinyin string (syllable) that is shown to the user's selection all is at first sorted according to the longest word that matches, and user's short sentence or phrase input However, the overall conversion scheme does not necessarily correspond to the sorting of the longest words. Therefore, users need multiple selection operations to find the short sentences or phrases they need.

For example, for the aforementioned number string "934539843", the user wishes to input "in order to block", and its corresponding pinyin string is "weilezuge". Later, the user needs to make multiple click selection operations, which greatly reduces the user's efficiency and experience in short sentence or phrase input
