You are given a 0-indexed array of unique strings words.

\n\n

A palindrome pair is a pair of integers (i, j) such that:

\n\n\n\n

Return an array of all the palindrome pairs of words.

\n\n

You must write an algorithm with O(sum of words[i].length) runtime complexity.

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: words = ["abcd","dcba","lls","s","sssll"]\nOutput: [[0,1],[1,0],[3,2],[2,4]]\nExplanation: The palindromes are ["abcddcba","dcbaabcd","slls","llssssll"]\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: words = ["bat","tab","cat"]\nOutput: [[0,1],[1,0]]\nExplanation: The palindromes are ["battab","tabbat"]\n
\n\n

Example 3:

\n\n
\nInput: words = ["a",""]\nOutput: [[0,1],[1,0]]\nExplanation: The palindromes are ["a","a"]\n
