Camelcase Matching

Given an array of strings queries and a string pattern, return a boolean array answer where answer[i] is true if queries[i] matches pattern, and false otherwise.

Given an array of strings queries and a string pattern, return a boolean array answer where answer[i] is true if queries[i] matches pattern, and false otherwise.

A query word queries[i] matches pattern if you can insert lowercase English letters into the pattern so that it equals the query. You may insert a character at any position in pattern or you may choose not to insert any characters at all.

Example 1

Input: queries = ["FooBar","FooBarTest","FootBall","FrameBuffer","ForceFeedBack"], pattern = "FB"

Output: [true,false,true,true,false]

Explanation: "FooBar" can be generated like this "F" + "oo" + "B" + "ar". "FootBall" can be generated like this "F" + "oot" + "B" + "all". "FrameBuffer" can be generated like this "F" + "rame" + "B" + "uffer".

Example 2

Input: queries = ["FooBar","FooBarTest","FootBall","FrameBuffer","ForceFeedBack"], pattern = "FoBa"

Output: [true,false,true,false,false]

Explanation: "FooBar" can be generated like this "Fo" + "o" + "Ba" + "r". "FootBall" can be generated like this "Fo" + "ot" + "Ba" + "ll".

Example 3

Input: queries = ["FooBar","FooBarTest","FootBall","FrameBuffer","ForceFeedBack"], pattern = "FoBaT"

Output: [false,true,false,false,false]

Explanation: "FooBarTest" can be generated like this "Fo" + "o" + "Ba" + "r" + "T" + "est".

Constraints

  • 1 <= pattern.length, queries.length <= 100
  • 1 <= queries[i].length <= 100
  • queries[i] and pattern consist of English letters.
