Distinct Characters Problem Statement

Given a string STR, return all possible non-empty subsequences with distinct characters. The order of the strings returned is not important.

Example:

Input:
STR = "cbc"
Output:
["c", "bc", "c", "cb", "b"]
Explanation:

The subsequences with distinct characters derived from "cbc" are "c", "bc", "c", "cb", and "b".

Constraints:

  • 1 <= T <= 100
  • 1 <= |STR| <= 15
  • Characters in STR are only lowercase English alphabets.

Input:

The input begins with an integer 'T', the number of test cases.
Each test case contains a single string STR.

Output:

For each test case, output the distinct character subsequences on a new line.
Note:
If the same string can be generated multiple times, include each occurrence. You are not required to print anything; simply implement the function to achieve the desired results.
