LeetCode 1662. Check If Two String Arrays are Equivalent

Description

https://leetcode.com/problems/check-if-two-string-arrays-are-equivalent/

Given two string arrays word1 and word2, returntrue if the two arrays represent the same string, and false otherwise.

A string is represented by an array if the array elements concatenated in order forms the string.

Example 1:

Input: word1 = ["ab", "c"], word2 = ["a", "bc"]
Output: true
Explanation:
word1 represents string "ab" + "c" -> "abc"
word2 represents string "a" + "bc" -> "abc"
The strings are the same, so return true.

Example 2:

Input: word1 = ["a", "cb"], word2 = ["ab", "c"]
Output: false

Example 3:

Input: word1  = ["abc", "d", "defg"], word2 = ["abcddefg"]
Output: true

Constraints:

• 1 <= word1.length, word2.length <= 103
• 1 <= word1[i].length, word2[i].length <= 103
• 1 <= sum(word1[i].length), sum(word2[i].length) <= 103
• word1[i] and word2[i] consist of lowercase letters.

Explanation

Compare two strings if they are the same.

Python Solution

class Solution:
    def arrayStringsAreEqual(self, word1: List[str], word2: List[str]) -> bool:
        str1 = ""
        str2 = ""
        
        for word in word1:
            str1 += word
            
        for word in word2:
            str2 += word
        
        
        return str1 == str2
