0408. Valid Word Abbreviation

https://leetcode.com/problems/valid-word-abbreviation

Description

A string can be abbreviated by replacing any number of non-adjacent substrings with their lengths. For example, a string such as "substitution" could be abbreviated as (but not limited to):

  • "s10n" ("s ubstitutio n")

  • "sub4u4" ("sub stit u tion")

  • "12" ("substitution")

  • "su3i1u2on" ("su bst i t u ti on")

  • "substitution" (no substrings replaced)

  • "s010n" (leading zeros in numbers are allowed)

Note that "s55n" ("s ubsti tutio n") is not a valid abbreviation of "substitution" because the replaced substrings are adjacent.

Given a string word and an abbreviation abbr, return whether the string matches with the given abbreviation.

Example 1:

**Input:** word = "internationalization", abbr = "i12iz4n"
**Output:** true
**Explanation:** The word "internationalization" can be abbreviated as "i12iz4n" ("i nternational iz atio n").

Example 2:

**Input:** word = "apple", abbr = "a2e"
**Output:** false
**Explanation:** The word "apple" cannot be abbreviated as "a2e".

Constraints:

  • 1 <= word.length <= 20

  • word consists of only lowercase English letters.

  • 1 <= abbr.length <= 10

  • abbr consists of lowercase English letters and digits.

  • All the integers in abbr will fit in a 32-bit integer.
