Letter Combinations of a Phone Number

Given a digit string, return all possible letter combinations that the number could represent.

A mapping of digit to letters (just like on the telephone buttons) is given below.

Input:Digit string "23"
Output: ["ad", "ae", "af", "bd", "be", "bf", "cd", "ce", "cf"].

Note:
Although the above answer is in lexicographical order, your answer could be in any order you want.

public class Solution {
    public List<String> letterCombinations(String digits) {
    	List<char[]> list = new ArrayList<char[]>();
        list.add(new char[]{‘ ‘});
        list.add(new char[]{});
        list.add(new char[]{‘a‘,‘b‘,‘c‘});
        list.add(new char[]{‘d‘,‘e‘,‘f‘});

        List<String> ret = new ArrayList<String>();
        ret.add("");
        return build(ret, list, digits, 0);
    }

			String digits, int i) {
