Scramble String
Given a string s1, we may represent it as a binary tree by partitioning it to two non-empty substrings recursively.
Below is one possible representation of s1 = "great"
:
great / \ gr eat / \ / \ g r e at / \ a t
To scramble the string, we may choose any non-leaf node and swap its two children.
For example, if we choose the node "gr"
and swap its two children, it produces a scrambled string "rgeat"
.
rgeat / \ rg eat / \ / \ r g e at / \ a t
We say that "rgeat"
is a scrambled string of "great"
.
Similarly, if we continue to swap the children of nodes "eat"
and "at"
, it produces a scrambled string "rgtae"
.
rgtae / \ rg tae / \ / \ r g ta e / \ t a
We say that "rgtae"
is a scrambled string of "great"
.
Given two strings s1 and s2 of the same length, determine if s2 is a scrambled string of s1.
