Solution: Longest Substring without Repeating Characters
Explore how to efficiently solve the problem of finding the longest substring without repeating characters. This lesson teaches you to implement a sliding window approach combined with a hash map to track characters and their indexes, optimizing the solution for linear time and constant space complexity. You'll learn to handle repeating characters dynamically by adjusting the window's start position, enabling you to solve similar string manipulation problems with ease.
