438. Find All Anagrams in a String

Medium

Given two strings s and p, return an array of all the start indices of p’s anagrams in s. You may return the answer in any order.

An Anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of a different word or phrase, typically using all the original letters exactly once.

Example 1:

Input: s = “cbaebabacd”, p = “abc”

Output: [0,6]

Explanation:

The substring with start index = 0 is "cba", which is an anagram of "abc".
The substring with start index = 6 is "bac", which is an anagram of "abc". 

Example 2:

Input: s = “abab”, p = “ab”

Output: [0,1,2]

Explanation:

The substring with start index = 0 is "ab", which is an anagram of "ab".
The substring with start index = 1 is "ba", which is an anagram of "ab".
The substring with start index = 2 is "ab", which is an anagram of "ab".

Solution

class Solution {
    func findAnagrams(_ s: String, _ p: String) -> [Int] {
        var map = [Int](repeating: 0, count: 26)
        for char in p {
            map[Int(char.asciiValue! - Character("a").asciiValue!)] += 1
        }

        var res = [Int]()
        var i = 0
        var j = 0
        let sArray = Array(s)
        let pLength = p.count

        while i < sArray.count {
            let idx = Int(sArray[i].asciiValue! - Character("a").asciiValue!)
            // Add the new character
            map[idx] -= 1

            // If the length is greater than window length, pop the left character in the window
            if i >= pLength {
                let leftIdx = Int(sArray[j].asciiValue! - Character("a").asciiValue!)
                map[leftIdx] += 1
                j += 1
            }

            var finish = true
            for count in map {
                // If it is not an anagram of string p
                if count != 0 {
                    finish = false
                    break
                }
            }

            if i >= pLength - 1 && finish {
                res.append(j)
            }

            i += 1
        }

        return res
    }
