Leetcode Problem 1616. Split Two Strings to Make Palindrome

1616. Split Two Strings to Make Palindrome

Leetcode Solutions

Greedy Approach with Palindrome Check

  1. Define a helper function isPalindrome that checks if a given substring is a palindrome.
  2. Define a function check that takes two strings a and b as arguments.
  3. Initialize two pointers, i starting from the beginning of a and j starting from the end of b.
  4. Increment i and decrement j as long as a[i] is equal to b[j].
  5. Once a mismatch is found, use isPalindrome to check if the remaining substring in a or b is a palindrome.
  6. If either check returns true, then a palindrome can be formed, so return true.
  7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 by swapping a and b.
  8. If no palindrome can be formed, return false.
