LeetCode in Kotlin
2370. Longest Ideal Subsequence
Medium
You are given a string s consisting of lowercase letters and an integer k. We call a string t ideal if the following conditions are satisfied:
tis a subsequence of the strings.- The absolute difference in the alphabet order of every two adjacent letters in
tis less than or equal tok.
Return the length of the longest ideal string.
A subsequence is a string that can be derived from another string by deleting some or no characters without changing the order of the remaining characters.
Note that the alphabet order is not cyclic. For example, the absolute difference in the alphabet order of 'a' and 'z' is 25, not 1.
Example 1:
Input: s = “acfgbd”, k = 2
Output: 4
Explanation: The longest ideal string is “acbd”. The length of this string is 4, so 4 is returned. Note that “acfgbd” is not ideal because ‘c’ and ‘f’ have a difference of 3 in alphabet order.
Example 2:
Input: s = “abcd”, k = 3
Output: 4
Explanation: The longest ideal string is “abcd”. The length of this string is 4, so 4 is returned.
Constraints:
1 <= s.length <= 1050 <= k <= 25sconsists of lowercase English letters.
Solution
class Solution {
fun longestIdealString(s: String, k: Int): Int {
var ans = 1
val array = IntArray(26)
for (i in 0 until s.length) {
val curr = s[i].code - 'a'.code
var currans = 1
var temp = k
array[curr] += 1
var j = curr - 1
while (temp > 0) {
if (j == -1) {
break
}
currans = Math.max(currans, array[j] + 1)
temp--
if (j == 0) {
break
}

}
temp = k
j = curr + 1
while (temp > 0) {
if (j == 26) {
break
}
currans = Math.max(currans, array[j] + 1)
temp--
if (j == 25) {

array[curr] = Math.max(currans, array[curr])
