Shuffle Two Strings

You are provided with three strings: A, B, and C. Your task is to determine if C is formed by interleaving A and B. A string C is considered an interleaving of A and B if:

  • The length of C is equal to the sum of the lengths of A and B.
  • All characters of A and B are present in C.
  • The order of characters is maintained as in A and B.

Input:

The first line contains an integer 'T' representing the number of test cases. Each test case consists of a single line with three space-separated strings: A, B, and C.

Output:

For each test case, output 'True' if C is an interleaving of A and B, otherwise output 'False'. Each result should be printed on a new line.

Example:

Input:
A = "aab", B = "abc", C = "aaabbc"
Output:
True
Explanation:

C is an interleaving of A and B since it contains all characters of A and B in the correct order.

Input:
A = "abc", B = "def", C = "abcdefg"
Output:
False
Explanation:

C is not an interleaving of A and B because it includes an extra character 'g'.

Constraints:

  • 1 <= T <= 100
  • 1 <= |A|, |B| <= 1000
  • 1 <= |C| <= 2000
  • All characters in A, B, and C are lowercase English letters.
  • Time limit: 1 second
