star lse ger shuff position add letters strings per
Given two strings s and t which consist of only lowercase letters.
String t is generated by random shuffling string s and then add one more letter at a random position.
Find the letter that was added in t.
Example:
Input: s = "abcd" t = "abcde" Output: e Explanation: ‘e‘ is the letter that was added.
class Solution { public char findTheDifference(String s, String t) { //in the middle(start) or in the end //get small length int sn = s.length(); int tn = t.length(); if(sn > tn) return helper(s,t); else return helper(t,s); } charhelper(String l, String s){ // larger and smaller int[] a = new int[26]; int[] b = new int[26]; for(int i = 0; i<l.length(); i++){ a[l.charAt(i) - ‘a‘] ++; } for(int i = 0; i<s.length(); i++){ b[s.charAt(i) - ‘a‘] ++; }for(int i = 0; i<26; i++){ if(a[i] != b[i]) return (char)(i+‘a‘); } return ‘a‘; } }
