Solution: Encode and Decode Strings

Explore how to implement encoding and decoding methods for string arrays using bitwise operations. Understand how to convert string lengths into a byte representation for transmission and reconstruct original strings efficiently. This lesson covers the step-by-step process, complexity analysis, and practical coding solutions in Python.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

Create a method, encode, that converts an array of strings into a single string and then sends it over the network. Create another method, decode, that takes the encoded string and converts it back into the original array of strings.

Constraints:

  • 1≤1 \leq strings.length ≤100\leq 100
