Get Equal Substrings Within Budget
You are given two strings s and t of the same length and an integer maxCost.
You are given two strings s and t of the same length and an integer maxCost.
You want to change s to t. Changing the ith character of s to ith character of t costs |s[i] - t[i]| (i.e., the absolute difference between the ASCII values of the characters).
Return the maximum length of a substring of s that can be changed to be the same as the corresponding substring of t with a cost less than or equal to maxCost. If there is no substring from s that can be changed to its corresponding substring from t, return 0.
Example 1
Input: s = "abcd", t = "bcdf", maxCost = 3
Output: 3
Explanation: "abc" of s can change to "bcd". That costs 3, so the maximum length is 3.
Example 2
Input: s = "abcd", t = "cdef", maxCost = 3
Output: 1
Explanation: Each character in s costs 2 to change to character in t, so the maximum length is 1.
Example 3
Input: s = "abcd", t = "acde", maxCost = 0
Output: 1
Explanation: You cannot make any change, so the maximum length is 1.
Constraints
- 1 <= s.length <= 10^5
- t.length == s.length
- 0 <= maxCost <= 10^6
- s and t consist of only lowercase English letters.
