Count Pairs Of Similar Strings

You are given a 0-indexed string array words.

You are given a 0-indexed string array words.

Two strings are similar if they consist of the same characters.

Return the number of pairs (i, j) such that 0 <= i < j <= word.length - 1 and the two strings words[i] and words[j] are similar.

Count Pairs Of Similar Strings diagram

Example 1

Input: words = ["aba","aabb","abcd","bac","aabc"]

Output: 2

Explanation: There are 2 pairs that satisfy the conditions: - i = 0 and j = 1 : both words[0] and words[1] only consist of characters 'a' and 'b'. - i = 3 and j = 4 : both words[3] and words[4] only consist of characters 'a', 'b', and 'c'.

Example 2

Input: words = ["aabb","ab","ba"]

Output: 3

Explanation: There are 3 pairs that satisfy the conditions: - i = 0 and j = 1 : both words[0] and words[1] only consist of characters 'a' and 'b'. - i = 0 and j = 2 : both words[0] and words[2] only consist of characters 'a' and 'b'. - i = 1 and j = 2 : both words[1] and words[2] only consist of characters 'a' and 'b'.

Example 3

Input: words = ["nba","cba","dba"]

Output: 0

Explanation: Since there does not exist any pair that satisfies the conditions, we return 0.

Constraints

  • 1 <= words.length <= 100
  • 1 <= words[i].length <= 100
  • words[i] consist of only lowercase English letters.
