Similar Strings Problem Statement
Determine whether two given strings, A
and B
, both of length N
, are similar by returning a 1 if they are, otherwise return a 0.
Explanation:
String A
is similar to string B
if the following conditions are met:
A
is equal toB
.- Both strings can be divided into two halves,
A1, A2
andB1, B2
, having equal lengths, such that at least one of the following is true:A1
is similar toB1
andA2
is similar toB2
.A1
is similar toB2
andA2
is similar toB1
.
Input:
The first line contains a single integer 'T'
, indicating the number of test cases.
For each test case, there are two space-separated strings: A
and B
.
Output:
For each test case, print 1
if 'A'
is similar to 'B'
, otherwise print 0
. Each result should be printed on a new line.
Example:
Input:
2
abcd dbca
abdc abcd
Output:
1
1
Constraints:
1 ≤ T ≤ 5
1 ≤ |A| = |B| ≤ 3000
- Both
A
andB
consist of only lowercase English letters. - Time limit: 1 second
Note:
You are not required to print anything; the task is to implement the given function and return the result.
