Problem: Partition Labels

Medium
30 min
Explore how to partition a string so that each letter appears in only one part by using the two pointers technique. This lesson helps you understand and implement efficient linear data structure solutions that prepare you for coding interviews and tackle string partition problems effectively.

Statement

You are given a string s. Your task is to divide the string into as many parts as possible such that each letter appears in at most one part.

In other words, no character should occur in more than one partition. After concatenating all parts in order, the result should be the original string s.

For example, given s = "bcbcdd", a valid partition is ["bcbc", "dd"]. However, partitions like ["bcb", "cdd"] or ["bc", "bc", "dd"] are invalid because some letters appear in multiple parts.

Return a list of integers representing the sizes of these partitions.

Constraints:

  • 11\leq s.length 500\leq500

  • s consists of lowercase English letters.
