Problem: Largest Palindromic Number

Medium
30 min
Explore how to find the largest palindromic number by rearranging digits from a given string. Understand the use of greedy techniques to optimize digit placement while avoiding leading zeros. This lesson helps you practice transforming problem statements into efficient coding solutions under given constraints.

Statement

You are given a string num consisting of digits from 00 to 99. Your task is to return the largest possible palindromic number as a string by using some or all of the digits in num. The resulting palindromic number must not have leading zeros.

Note: You may reorder the digits freely, and you must use at least one digit from the num string.

Constraints:

  • 11\leq num.length 1000\leq 1000

  • num consists of digits
