In English, we have a concept called root
, which can be followed by some other
words to form another longer word - let's call this word successor
. For
example, the root an
, followed by other
, which can form another
word another
.
Now, given a dictionary consisting of many roots and a sentence. You need to replace all the
successor
in the sentence with the root
forming it. If a successor
has many roots
can form it, replace it with the root with the shortest length.
You need to output the sentence after the replacement.
Example 1:
Input: dict = ["cat", "bat", "rat"] sentence = "the cattle was rattled by the battery" Output: "the cat was rat by the bat"
