Implement strStr()
Problem
For a given source
string and a target
string, you should output the first index (from 0
) of target string in source string.
If target does not exist in source, just return -1
.
Example
If source = "source"
and target = "target"
, return -1
.
If source = "abcdabcdefg"
and target = "bcd"
, return 1
.
Challenge
O(n^2)
is acceptable. Can you implement an O(n)
algorithm? (hint: KMP)
