0916. Word Subsets

Description

You are given two string arrays words1 and words2.

A string b is a subset of string a if every letter in b occurs in a including multiplicity.

  • For example, "wrr" is a subset of "warrior" but is not a subset of "world".

A string a from words1 is universal if for every string b in words2, b is a subset of a.

Return an array of all the universal strings in words1. You may return the answer in any order.

 

Example 1:

Input: words1 = ["amazon","apple","facebook","google","leetcode"], words2 = ["e","o"]

Output: ["facebook","google","leetcode"]

Example 2:

Input: words1 = ["amazon","apple","facebook","google","leetcode"], words2 = ["lc","eo"]

Output: ["leetcode"]

Example 3:

Input: words1 = ["acaac","cccbb","aacbb","caacc","bcbbb"], words2 = ["c","cc","b"]

Output: ["cccbb"]

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= words1.length, words2.length <= 104
  • 1 <= words1[i].length, words2[i].length <= 10
  • words1[i] and words2[i] consist only of lowercase English letters.
  • All the strings of words1 are unique.

Solutions

Solution 1: Counting

Traverse each word b in words2, count the maximum occurrence of each letter, and record it as cnt.

Then traverse each word a in words1, count the occurrence of each letter, and record it as t. If the occurrence of each letter in cnt is not greater than the occurrence in t, then a is a universal word, and add it to the answer.

The time complexity is O(L), where L is the sum of the lengths of all words in words1 and words2.
