3803. Count Residue Prefixes Easy
1/**
2 * [3803] Count Residue Prefixes
3 *
4 * You are given a string s consisting only of lowercase English letters.
5 * A prefix of s is called a residue if the number of distinct characters in the prefix is equal to len(prefix) % 3.
6 * Return the count of residue prefixes in s.
7 * A prefix of a string is a non-empty substring that starts from the beginning of the string and extends to any point within it.
8 *
9 * <strong class="example">Example 1:
10 * <div class="example-block">
11 * Input: <span class="example-io">s = "abc"</span>
12 * Output: <span class="example-io">2</span>
13 * Explanation:
14 *
15 * Prefix "a" has 1 distinct character and length modulo 3 is 1, so it is a residue.
16 * Prefix "ab" has 2 distinct characters and length modulo 3 is 2, so it is a residue.
17 * Prefix "abc" does not satisfy the condition. Thus, the answer is 2.
18 * </div>
19 * <strong class="example">Example 2:
20 * <div class="example-block">
21 * Input: <span class="example-io">s = "dd"</span>
22 * Output: <span class="example-io">1</span>
23 * Explanation:
24 *
25 * Prefix "d" has 1 distinct character and length modulo 3 is 1, so it is a residue.
26 * Prefix "dd" has 1 distinct character but length modulo 3 is 2, so it is not a residue. Thus, the answer is 1.
27 * </div>
28 * <strong class="example">Example 3:
29 * <div class="example-block">
30 * Input: <span class="example-io">s = "bob"</span>
31 * Output: <span class="example-io">2</span>
32 * Explanation:
33 *
34 * Prefix "b" has 1 distinct character and length modulo 3 is 1, so it is a residue.
35 * Prefix "bo" has 2 distinct characters and length mod 3 is 2, so it is a residue. Thus, the answer is 2.
36 * </div>
37 *
38 * Constraints:
39 *
40 * 1 <= s.length <= 100
41 * s contains only lowercase English letters.
