Class Solution
Medium
You are given a string source of size n, a string pattern that is a subsequence of source, and a sorted integer array targetIndices that contains distinct numbers in the range [0, n - 1].
We define an operation as removing a character at an index idx from source such that:
idxis an element oftargetIndices.patternremains a subsequence ofsourceafter removing the character.
Performing an operation does not change the indices of the other characters in source. For example, if you remove 'c' from "acb", the character at index 2 would still be 'b'.
Return the maximum number of operations that can be performed.
Example 1:
Input: source = “abbaa”, pattern = “aba”, targetIndices = [0,1,2]
Output: 1
Explanation:
We can’t remove source[0] but we can do either of these two operations:
- Remove
source[1], so thatsourcebecomes"a_baa". - Remove
source[2], so thatsourcebecomes"ab_aa".
Example 2:
Input: source = “bcda”, pattern = “d”, targetIndices = [0,3]
Output: 2
Explanation:
We can remove source[0] and source[3] in two operations.
Example 3:
Input: source = “dda”, pattern = “dda”, targetIndices = [0,1,2]
Output: 0
Explanation:
We can’t remove any character from source.
Example 4:
Input: source = “yeyeykyded”, pattern = “yeyyd”, targetIndices = [0,2,3,4]
Output: 2
Explanation:
We can remove source[2] and source[3] in two operations.
Constraints:
1 <= n == source.length <= 3 * 1031 <= pattern.length <= n1 <= targetIndices.length <= ntargetIndicesis sorted in ascending order.- The input is generated such that
targetIndicescontains distinct elements in the range[0, n - 1]. sourceandpatternconsist only of lowercase English letters.- The input is generated such that
patternappears as a subsequence insource.
