Solution: Custom Sort String

Explore how to implement a custom string sort using hash maps in Go. Learn to count character frequencies, maintain relative order based on a custom sequence, and build the result string efficiently. Understand the time and space complexity of this approach to optimize string manipulation in coding interviews.

Statement

Given two strings, order and s, where all characters in order are unique and arranged in a custom order, return any permutation of s that satisfies the following condition:

The characters in the permuted s should appear in the same relative order as they do in order. Specifically, if a character x appears before a character y in order, then x must also appear before y in the permuted string.
