2 * [3443] Maximum Manhattan Distance After K Changes
3 *
4 * You are given a string s consisting of the characters 'N', 'S', 'E', and 'W', where s[i] indicates movements in an infinite grid:
5 *
6 * 'N' : Move north by 1 unit.
7 * 'S' : Move south by 1 unit.
8 * 'E' : Move east by 1 unit.
9 * 'W' : Move west by 1 unit.
10 *
11 * Initially, you are at the origin (0, 0). You can change at most k characters to any of the four directions.
12 * Find the maximum Manhattan distance from the origin that can be achieved at any time while performing the movements in order.
13 * The Manhattan Distance between two cells (xi, yi) and (xj, yj) is |xi - xj| + |yi - yj|.
14 *
15 * <strong class="example">Example 1:
16 * <div class="example-block">
17 * Input: <span class="example-io">s = "NWSE", k = 1</span>
18 * Output: <span class="example-io">3</span>
19 * Explanation:
20 * Change s[2] from 'S' to 'N'. The string s becomes "NWNE".

57 * The maximum Manhattan distance from the origin that can be achieved is 3. Hence, 3 is the output.

59 * <strong class="example">Example 2:
60 * <div class="example-block">
61 * Input: <span class="example-io">s = "NSWWEW", k = 3</span>
62 * Output: <span class="example-io">6</span>
63 * Explanation:
64 * Change s[1] from 'S' to 'N', and s[4] from 'E' to 'W'. The string s becomes "NNWWWW".
65 * The maximum Manhattan distance from the origin that can be achieved is 6. Hence, 6 is the output.

67 *
68 * Constraints:
69 *
70 * 1 <= s.length <= 10^5
71 * 0 <= k <= s.length
72 * s consists of only 'N', 'S', 'E', and 'W'.
