LeetCode in Kotlin

2185. Counting Words With a Given Prefix

Easy

You are given an array of strings words and a string pref.

Return the number of strings in words that contain pref as a prefix.

A prefix of a string s is any leading contiguous substring of s.

Example 1:

Input: words = [“pay”,”attention”,”practice”,”attend”], pref = “at”

Output: 2

Explanation: The 2 strings that contain “at” as a prefix are: “attention” and “attend”.

Example 2:

Input: words = [“leetcode”,”win”,”loops”,”success”], pref = “code”

Output: 0

Explanation: There are no strings that contain “code” as a prefix.

Solution

class Solution {
    fun prefixCount(words: Array<String>, pref: String?): Int {
        var count = 0
        for (s in words) {
            if (s.startsWith(pref!!)) {
                count++
            }
        }
        return count
    }
}
