Given a 0-indexed string word
and a character ch
, reverse the segment of word
that starts at index 0
and ends at the index of the first occurrence of ch
(inclusive). If the character ch
does not exist in word
, do nothing.
- For example, if
word = "abcdefd"
andch = "d"
, then you should reverse the segment that starts at0
and ends at3
(inclusive). The resulting string will be"dcbaefd"
.
Return the resulting string.
Example 1:
Input: word = "abcdefd", ch = "d"
Output: "dcbaefd"
Explanation: The first occurrence of "d" is at index 3.
Reverse the part of word from 0 to 3 (inclusive), the resulting string is "dcbaefd".
Example 2:
Input: word = "xyxzxe", ch = "z"
Output: "zxyxxe"
Explanation: The first and only occurrence of "z" is at index 3.
Reverse the part of word from 0 to 3 (inclusive), the resulting string is "zxyxxe".
Example 3:
Input: word = "abcd", ch = "z"
Output: "abcd"
Explanation: "z" does not exist in word.
You should not do any reverse operation, the resulting string is "abcd".
Constraints:
-
1 <= word.length <= 250
-
word
consists of lowercase English letters. -
ch
is a lowercase English letter.
SOLUTION:
class Solution:
def reversePrefix(self, word: str, ch: str) -> str:
try:
i = word.index(ch)
except:
i = 0
return word[:i+1][::-1] + word[i+1:]
