0804. Unique Morse Code Words

https://leetcode.com/problems/unique-morse-code-words

Description

International Morse Code defines a standard encoding where each letter is mapped to a series of dots and dashes, as follows:

  • 'a' maps to ".-",

  • 'b' maps to "-...",

  • 'c' maps to "-.-.", and so on.

For convenience, the full table for the 26 letters of the English alphabet is given below:

[".-","-...","-.-.","-..",".","..-.","--.","....","..",".---","-.-",".-..","--","-.","---",".--.","--.-",".-.","...","-","..-","...-",".--","-..-","-.--","--.."]

Given an array of strings words where each word can be written as a concatenation of the Morse code of each letter.

  • For example, "cab" can be written as "-.-..--...", which is the concatenation of "-.-.", ".-", and "-...". We will call such a concatenation the transformation of a word.

Return the number of different transformations among all words we have.

Example 1:

**Input:** words = ["gin","zen","gig","msg"]
**Output:** 2
**Explanation:** The transformation of each word is:
"gin" -> "--...-."
"zen" -> "--...-."
"gig" -> "--...--."
"msg" -> "--...--."
There are 2 different transformations: "--...-." and "--...--.".

Example 2:

**Input:** words = ["a"]
**Output:** 1

Constraints:

  • 1 <= words.length <= 100

  • 1 <= words[i].length <= 12

  • words[i] consists of lowercase English letters.
