Problem: Longest Repeating Character Replacement

med
30 min
Explore how to apply the sliding window technique to solve the longest repeating character replacement problem. Understand how to identify the length of the longest substring where characters can be replaced up to k times to achieve uniformity. This lesson helps you develop an efficient approach to this common coding interview challenge, improving your problem-solving skills in string manipulation and optimization.

Statement

Given a string, s, and an integer, k, find the length of the longest substring in s, where all characters are identical, after replacing, at most, k characters with any other uppercase English character.

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq s.length 103\leq 10^3

  • s consists of only uppercase English characters.

  • 00 \leq k \leq s.length
