BinarySearch 0577 Finding Binary Search in a String
Problem statement
https://binarysearch.com/problems/Finding-Binary-Search-in-a-String/
Solution
We can do bruteforce here: check all possible candidates of length m = 11
: we have O(n)
cases for start and O(n//m)
cases for step, so in total we need to check O(n^2)
cases.
Complexity
It is O(n^2)
for time and O(m)
for space, where m = 11
here.
Code
class Solution:
def solve(self, s):
n = len(s)
return any(s[i:i+d*12:d]=="binarysearch" for d in range(1, n//11+1) for i in range(n-11*d))
