The letter value of a letter is its position in the alphabet starting from 0 (i.e. 'a' -> 0
, 'b' -> 1
, 'c' -> 2
, etc.).
The numerical value of some string of lowercase English letters s
is the concatenation of the letter values of each letter in s
, which is then converted into an integer.
s = "acb "
, we concatenate each letter's letter value, resulting in "021 "
. After converting it, we get 21
.You are given three strings firstWord
, secondWord
, and targetWord
, each consisting of lowercase English letters 'a'
through 'j'
inclusive.
Return true
if the summation of the numerical values of firstWord
and secondWord
equals the numerical value of targetWord
, or false
otherwise.
Example 1:
Input: firstWord = "acb ", secondWord = "cba ", targetWord = "cdb " Output: true Explanation: The numerical value of firstWord is "acb " -> "021 " -> 21. The numerical value of secondWord is "cba " -> "210 " -> 210. The numerical value of targetWord is "cdb " -> "231 " -> 231. We return true because 21 + 210 == 231.
Example 2:
Input: firstWord = "aaa ", secondWord = "a ", targetWord = "aab " Output: false Explanation: The numerical value of firstWord is "aaa " -> "000 " -> 0. The numerical value of secondWord is "a " -> "0 " -> 0. The numerical value of targetWord is "aab " -> "001 " -> 1. We return false because 0 + 0 != 1.
Example 3:
Input: firstWord = "aaa ", secondWord = "a ", targetWord = "aaaa " Output: true Explanation: The numerical value of firstWord is "aaa " -> "000 " -> 0. The numerical value of secondWord is "a " -> "0 " -> 0. The numerical value of targetWord is "aaaa " -> "0000 " -> 0. We return true because 0 + 0 == 0.

The algorithm starts with two given strings, word1
and word2
. The goal is to create the lexicographically largest merge
string by choosing characters from either of the input strings. The algorithm operates in a while
loop that continues until both input strings are empty.
In each iteration of the loop, the algorithm compares the input strings lexicographically. If word1
is lexicographically larger, it takes the first character of word1
, appends it to the merge
string, and removes it from the input string. If word2
is lexicographically larger or equal, it does the same operation for word2
.
This process continues until both input strings are empty, resulting in the lexicographically largest possible merge
string. Then the merge
string is returned.
