Repeated DNA Sequences
Understand how to apply the sliding window technique to detect all repeated 10-letter sequences in a DNA string. This lesson helps you efficiently solve substring problems by leveraging the sliding window method to find repeated nucleotide patterns.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
A DNA sequence consists of a series of nucleotides, each represented by one of the characters 'A', 'C', 'G', or 'T'.
Given a string s representing a DNA sequence, find and return all s. The result may be returned in any order.
Constraints:
s.lengths[i]is one of'A','C','G', or'T'
Examples
Understand the problem
Now, let’s take a moment to make sure you’ve correctly understood the problem. The quiz below helps you check if you’re solving the correct problem:
Repeated DNA Sequences
Given the input s = "TTTTTTTTT", what is the output of finding all -letter-long substrings that appear more than once?
["TTTTTTTTT"]
["TTTTTTTTTT"]
[]
["TTTTTTTTT", "TTTTTTTTTT"]
Figure it out!
We have a game for you to play. Rearrange the logical building blocks to develop a clearer understanding of how to solve this problem.
