<p>Given two strings <code>a</code> and <code>b</code>, return <em>the minimum number of times you should repeat string </em><code>a</code><em> so that string</em> <code>b</code> <em>is a substring of it</em>. If it is impossible for <code>b</code> to be a substring of <code>a</code> after repeating it, return <code>-1</code>.</p>
<p><strong>Notice:</strong> string <code>&quot;abc&quot;</code> repeated 0 times is <code>&quot;&quot;</code>, repeated 1 time is <code>&quot;abc&quot;</code> and repeated 2 times is <code>&quot;abcabc&quot;</code>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p>
<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> a = &quot;abcd&quot;, b = &quot;cdabcdab&quot;
<strong>Output:</strong> 3
<strong>Explanation:</strong> We return 3 because by repeating a three times &quot;ab<strong>cdabcdab</strong>cd&quot;, b is a substring of it.
</pre>
<p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p>
<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> a = &quot;a&quot;, b = &quot;aa&quot;
<strong>Output:</strong> 2
</pre>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Constraints:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><code>1 &lt;= a.length, b.length &lt;= 10<sup>4</sup></code></li>
<li><code>a</code> and <code>b</code> consist of lowercase English letters.</li>
</ul>
