{leetcode}/problems/minimum-cost-to-convert-string-ii/[LeetCode - 2977. Minimum Cost to Convert String II ^]
You are given two 0-indexed strings source
and target
, both of length n
and consisting of lowercase English characters. You are also given two 0-indexed string arrays original
and changed
, and an integer array cost
, where cost[i]
represents the cost of converting the string original[i]
to the string changed[i]
.
You start with the string source
. In one operation, you can pick a substring x
from the string, and change it to y
at a cost of z
if there exists any index j
such that cost[j] == z
, original[j] == x
, and changed[j] == y
. You are allowed to do any number of operations, but any pair of operations must satisfy either of these two conditions:
-
The substrings picked in the operations are
source[a..b]
andsource[c..d]
with eitherb < c
ord < a
. In other words, the indices picked in both operations are disjoint. -
The substrings picked in the operations are
source[a..b]
andsource[c..d]
witha == c
andb == d
. In other words, the indices picked in both operations are identical.
Return the minimum cost to convert the string _`source` to the string `target` using any number of operations_. If it is impossible to convert source
to target
,_ return_ -1
.
Note that there may exist indices i
, j
such that original[j] == original[i]
and changed[j] == changed[i]
.
Example 1:
Input: source = "abcd", target = "acbe", original = ["a","b","c","c","e","d"], changed = ["b","c","b","e","b","e"], cost = [2,5,5,1,2,20] Output: 28 Explanation: To convert "abcd" to "acbe", do the following operations: - Change substring source[1..1] from "b" to "c" at a cost of 5. - Change substring source[2..2] from "c" to "e" at a cost of 1. - Change substring source[2..2] from "e" to "b" at a cost of 2. - Change substring source[3..3] from "d" to "e" at a cost of 20. The total cost incurred is 5 + 1 + 2 + 20 = 28. It can be shown that this is the minimum possible cost.
Example 2:
Input: source = "abcdefgh", target = "acdeeghh", original = ["bcd","fgh","thh"], changed = ["cde","thh","ghh"], cost = [1,3,5] Output: 9 Explanation: To convert "abcdefgh" to "acdeeghh", do the following operations: - Change substring source[1..3] from "bcd" to "cde" at a cost of 1. - Change substring source[5..7] from "fgh" to "thh" at a cost of 3. We can do this operation because indices [5,7] are disjoint with indices picked in the first operation. - Change substring source[5..7] from "thh" to "ghh" at a cost of 5. We can do this operation because indices [5,7] are disjoint with indices picked in the first operation, and identical with indices picked in the second operation. The total cost incurred is 1 + 3 + 5 = 9. It can be shown that this is the minimum possible cost.
Example 3:
Input: source = "abcdefgh", target = "addddddd", original = ["bcd","defgh"], changed = ["ddd","ddddd"], cost = [100,1578] Output: -1 Explanation: It is impossible to convert "abcdefgh" to "addddddd". If you select substring source[1..3] as the first operation to change "abcdefgh" to "adddefgh", you cannot select substring source[3..7] as the second operation because it has a common index, 3, with the first operation. If you select substring source[3..7] as the first operation to change "abcdefgh" to "abcddddd", you cannot select substring source[1..3] as the second operation because it has a common index, 3, with the first operation.
