Cracking the Safe

There is a safe protected by a password.

There is a safe protected by a password. The password is a sequence of n digits where each digit can be in the range [0, k - 1].

The safe has a peculiar way of checking the password. When you enter in a sequence, it checks the most recent n digits that were entered each time you type a digit.

Return any string of minimum length that will unlock the safe at some point of entering it.

Example 1

Input: n = 1, k = 2

Output: "10"

Explanation: The password is a single digit, so enter each digit. "01" would also unlock the safe.

Example 2

Input: n = 2, k = 2

Output: "01100"

Explanation: For each possible password: - "00" is typed in starting from the 4th digit. - "01" is typed in starting from the 1st digit. - "10" is typed in starting from the 3rd digit. - "11" is typed in starting from the 2nd digit. Thus "01100" will unlock the safe. "10011", and "11001" would also unlock the safe.

Constraints

  • 1 <= n <= 4
  • 1 <= k <= 10
  • 1 <= kn <= 4096
