290. Word Pattern - Easy
Given a pattern
and a string str
, find if str
follows the same pattern.
Here follow means a full match, such that there is a bijection between a letter in pattern
and a non-empty word in str
.
Example 1:
Input: pattern ="abba"
, str ="dog cat cat dog"
Output: true
Example 2:
Input:pattern ="abba"
, str ="dog cat cat fish"
Output: false
Example 3:
Input: pattern ="aaaa"
, str ="dog cat cat dog"
Output: false
Example 4:
Input: pattern ="abba"
, str ="dog dog dog dog"
Output: false
Notes:
You may assume pattern
contains only lowercase letters, and str
contains lowercase letters that may be separated by a single space.
time = O(n), space = O(n)
