Given two strings s
and t
of lengths m
and n
respectively, return the minimum window substring of s
such that every character in t
(including duplicates) is included in the window. If there is no such substring__, return the empty string ""
.
The testcases will be generated such that the answer is unique.
A substring is a contiguous sequence of characters within the string.
Example 1:
Input: s = “ADOBECODEBANC”, t = “ABC”
Output: “BANC”
Explanation: The minimum window substring “BANC” includes ‘A’, ‘B’, and ‘C’ from string t.
Example 2:
Input: s = “a”, t = “a”
Output: “a”
Explanation: The entire string s is the minimum window.
Example 3:
Input: s = “a”, t = “aa”
Output: “”
Explanation: Both ‘a’s from t must be included in the window. Since the largest window of s only has one ‘a’, return empty string.
Constraints:
m == s.length
n == t.length
1 <= m, n <= 105
s
and t
consist of uppercase and lowercase English letters.Follow up: Could you find an algorithm that runs in O(m + n)
