You are given two strings word1 and word2.
A string x is called almost equal to y if you can change at most one character in x to make it identical to y.
A sequence of indices seq is called valid if:
word1 in the same order results in a string that is almost equal to word2.Return an array of size word2.length representing the lexicographically smallest valid sequence of indices. If no such sequence of indices exists, return an empty array.
Note that the answer must represent the lexicographically smallest array, not the corresponding string formed by those indices.
\n\n\n
Example 1:
\n\nInput: word1 = "vbcca", word2 = "abc"
\n\nOutput: [0,1,2]
\n\nExplanation:
\n\nThe lexicographically smallest valid sequence of indices is [0, 1, 2]:
word1[0] to 'a'.word1[1] is already 'b'.word1[2] is already 'c'.Example 2:
\n\nInput: word1 = "bacdc", word2 = "abc"
\n\nOutput: [1,2,4]
\n\nExplanation:
\n\nThe lexicographically smallest valid sequence of indices is [1, 2, 4]:
word1[1] is already 'a'.word1[2] to 'b'.word1[4] is already 'c'.Example 3:
\n\nInput: word1 = "aaaaaa", word2 = "aaabc"
\n\nOutput: []
\n\nExplanation:
\n\nThere is no valid sequence of indices.
\nExample 4:
\n\nInput: word1 = "abc", word2 = "ab"
\n\nOutput: [0,1]

Constraints:
\n\n1 <= word2.length < word1.length <= 3 * 105word1 and word2 consist only of lowercase English letters.dp[i] be the longest suffix of word2 that exists as a subsequence of suffix of the substring of word1 starting at index i.",
"If dp[i + 1] < m and word1[i] == word2[m - dp[i + 1] - 1],dp[i] = dp[i + 1] + 1. Otherwise, dp[i] = dp[i + 1].",
"For each index i, greedily select characters using the dp array to know whether a solution exists."
