You are given a string s, a string chars of distinct characters and an integer array vals of the same length as chars.

\n\n

The cost of the substring is the sum of the values of each character in the substring. The cost of an empty string is considered 0.

\n\n

The value of the character is defined in the following way:

\n\n\n\n

Return the maximum cost among all substrings of the string s.

\n\n

 

\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: s = "adaa", chars = "d", vals = [-1000]\nOutput: 2\nExplanation: The value of the characters "a" and "d" is 1 and -1000 respectively.\nThe substring with the maximum cost is "aa" and its cost is 1 + 1 = 2.\nIt can be proven that 2 is the maximum cost.\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: s = "abc", chars = "abc", vals = [-1,-1,-1]\nOutput: 0\nExplanation: The value of the characters "a", "b" and "c" is -1, -1, and -1 respectively.\nThe substring with the maximum cost is the empty substring "" and its cost is 0.\nIt can be proven that 0 is the maximum cost.\n
