Is Subsequence | Leetcode 392 solution

 392. Is Subsequence | Leetcode easy solution


Given two strings s and t, return true if s is a subsequence of t, or false otherwise.

subsequence of a string is a new string that is formed from the original string by deleting some (can be none) of the characters without disturbing the relative positions of the remaining characters. (i.e., "ace" is a subsequence of "abcde" while "aec" is not).

 

Example 1:

Input: s = "abc", t = "ahbgdc"
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: s = "axc", t = "ahbgdc"
Output: false

 

Constraints:

  • 0 <= s.length <= 100
  • 0 <= t.length <= 104
  • s and t consist only of lowercase English letters.

Solution : 


class Solution {
public:
    bool solve(string s , string t , int i , int j)
    {
        if(i == -1)
        {
          return true;
        }
        if(j == -1)
        {
            return false;
        }
        if(s[i] == t[j])
        {
            return solve(s , t , i-1 , j-1) ;
        }
        return solve(s , t , i , j-1);
    }
    bool isSubsequence(string s, string t) {

        int i = s.length() -1;
        int j = t.length() -1;
        return solve(s , t , i , j);
     
    }
};
