Number of Good Ways to Split a String

You are given a string s.

You are given a string s.

A split is called good if you can split s into two non-empty strings sleft and sright where their concatenation is equal to s (i.e., sleft + sright = s) and the number of distinct letters in sleft and sright is the same.

Return the number of good splits you can make in s.

Example 1

Input: s = "aacaba"

Output: 2

Explanation: There are 5 ways to split "aacaba" and 2 of them are good. ("a", "acaba") Left string and right string contains 1 and 3 different letters respectively.
