Problem statement

Given an array of words and an array of sentences, calculate how many sentences can be created by replacing any word with one of its anagrams.

Function

countSentences(wordSet: String[], sentences: String[]) → int[]

Complete the function countSentences in the editor.

countSentences has the following parameters:

  • string wordSet[n]: an array of strings
  • string sentences[m]: an array of strings

Returns int[n]: an array of m integers that denote the number of sentences that can be formed from each sentence

Examples

Example 1

wordSet = ["listen", "silent", "it", "is"]sentences = ["listen it is silent"]return = [4]

Determine that listen is an anagram of silent. Those two words can be replaced with their anagrams. The four sentences that can be created are:

  • listen it is silent
  • listen it is listen
  • silent it is silent
  • silent it is listen

Therefore, the output is an array with one element: [4].

Constraints

  • 0 < n ≤ 10^5
  • 1 ≤ length of each word ≤ 20
  • 1 ≤ m ≤ 1000
  • 3 ≤ words in a sentence ≤ 20
