828. Count Unique Characters of All Substrings of a Given String
Hard
Let's define a function countUniqueChars(s) that returns the number of unique characters on s.
For example, calling
countUniqueChars(s)ifs = "LEETCODE"then"L","T","C","O","D"are the unique characters since they appear only once ins, thereforecountUniqueChars(s) = 5.
Given a string s, return the sum of countUniqueChars(t) where t is a substring of s. The test cases are generated such that the answer fits in a 32-bit integer.
Notice that some substrings can be repeated so in this case you have to count the repeated ones too.
Example 1:
Input: s = "ABC"
Output:
10
Explanation:
All possible substrings are: "A","B","C","AB","BC" and "ABC".
Every substring is composed with only unique letters.
Sum of lengths of all substring is 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 3 = 10Example 2:
Input: s = "ABA"
Output:
8
Explanation:
The same as example 1, except countUniqueChars("ABA") = 1.Example 3:
Input: s = "LEETCODE"
Output:
92
Constraints:
1 <= s.length <= 105sconsists of uppercase English letters only.
