Medium
30 min
Explore the concept of the longest happy prefix in a string, where a prefix matches a suffix but is not the entire string. Learn to solve this problem efficiently using hash maps, understand the problem constraints, and implement your solution in a coding environment.

Statement

Given a string, s, find the longest happy prefix. If no such prefix exists, return an empty string "".

Note: A happy prefix of a string is a non-empty substring at the beginning that also appears at the end (but not the entire string itself).

Constraints:

  • 1<=1 <= s.length <=105<= 10^5

  • s contains only lowercase English letters.
