Solution: Longest Common Suffix Queries
Understand how to solve longest common suffix queries by building a reversed trie from a list of strings. Explore constructing and querying the trie to find the string with the longest matching suffix, prioritizing shortest length and earliest appearance. This lesson guides you through implementing this approach and analyzing its time and space complexity, enhancing your grasp of trie applications in string matching.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
You are given two arrays of strings, wordsContainer and wordsQuery.
For each string wordsQuery[i], find the string in wordsContainer that shares the longest common suffix with it.
If multiple strings in
wordsContainershare the same longest suffix, choose the one with the smallest length.If two or more such strings have the same smallest length, choose the string that appears earliest in
wordsContainer.
Return an array of integers ans, where ans[i] is the index of the chosen string in wordsContainer for the query wordsQuery[i].
Constraints:
wordsContainer.length, wordsQuery.length...
