Solution: Group Anagrams
Explore methods to group strings that are anagrams by tracking character frequencies. Understand both the naive sorting approach and an optimized frequency mapping technique to solve this problem efficiently, improving your ability to handle similar coding interview questions with complex data sets.
Statement
Given a list of strings strs, group together all strings that are anagrams of each other.
An anagram is a string formed by rearranging the letters of another string, using all original letters exactly once. For example, “eat”, “tea”, and “ate” are anagrams.
Return a list of groups, where each group contains strings that are anagrams of each other.
Note: The order of the groups and the order of strings within each group does not matter.
Constraints:
Let strs be the list of strings given as input to find the anagrams.
