1930. Unique Length-3 Palindromic Subsequences
https://leetcode.com/problems/unique-length-3-palindromic-subsequences
Description
Given a string s
, return the number of unique palindromes of length three that are a subsequence of s
.
Note that even if there are multiple ways to obtain the same subsequence, it is still only counted once.
A palindrome is a string that reads the same forwards and backwards.
A subsequence of a string is a new string generated from the original string with some characters (can be none) deleted without changing the relative order of the remaining characters.
For example,
"ace"
is a subsequence of"abcde"
.
Example 1:
**Input:** s = "aabca"
**Output:** 3
**Explanation:** The 3 palindromic subsequences of length 3 are:
- "aba" (subsequence of "aabca")
- "aaa" (subsequence of "aabca")
- "aca" (subsequence of "aabca")
Example 2:
**Input:** s = "adc"
**Output:** 0
**Explanation:** There are no palindromic subsequences of length 3 in "adc".
Example 3:
**Input:** s = "bbcbaba"
**Output:** 4
**Explanation:** The 4 palindromic subsequences of length 3 are:
- "bbb" (subsequence of "bbcbaba")
- "bcb" (subsequence of "bbcbaba")
- "bab" (subsequence of "bbcbaba")
- "aba" (subsequence of "bbcbaba")
Constraints:
3 <= s.length <= 105
s
consists of only lowercase English letters.
