2767. Partition String Into Minimum Beautiful Substrings

Medium

Given a binary string s, partition the string into one or more substrings such that each substring is beautiful.

A string is beautiful if:

Return the minimum number of substrings in such partition. If it is impossible to partition the string s into beautiful substrings, return -1.

A substring is a contiguous sequence of characters in a string.

Example 1:

Input: s = “1011”

Output: 2

Explanation: We can paritition the given string into [“101”, “1”].

It can be shown that 2 is the minimum number of beautiful substrings that s can be partitioned into.

Example 2:

Input: s = “111”

Output: 3

Explanation: We can paritition the given string into [“1”, “1”, “1”].

It can be shown that 3 is the minimum number of beautiful substrings that s can be partitioned into.

Example 3:

Input: s = “0”

Output: -1

Explanation: We can not partition the given string into beautiful substrings.

        return if (result == Int.MAX_VALUE) {
            -1

            if (set.contains(s.substring(index, i))) {
                val result = minimumBeautifulSubstringsHelper(s, i, set, count + 1)
                minResult = minResult.coerceAtMost(result)
