Word Pattern

easy

Given a pattern and a string s, find if s follows the same pattern.

Here follow means a full match, such that there is a bijection between a letter in pattern and a non-empty word in s.

Example 1

Input: pattern = "abba", s = "dog cat cat dog"
Output: true

Example 2

Input: pattern = "abba", s = "dog cat cat fish"
Output: false

Example 3

Input: pattern = "aaaa", s = "dog cat cat dog"
Output: false

Constraints

  • 1 <= pattern.length <= 300
  • pattern contains only lower-case English letters.
  • 1 <= s.length <= 3000
  • s contains only lowercase English letters and spaces.
  • s does not contain any leading or trailing spaces.
  • All the words in s are separated by a single space.
