<p>Given two strings <code>s1</code> and <code>s2</code>, return <em>the lowest <strong>ASCII</strong> sum of deleted characters to make two strings equal</em>.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p> </p>
 | 
						|
<p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<pre>
 | 
						|
<strong>Input:</strong> s1 = "sea", s2 = "eat"
 | 
						|
<strong>Output:</strong> 231
 | 
						|
<strong>Explanation:</strong> Deleting "s" from "sea" adds the ASCII value of "s" (115) to the sum.
 | 
						|
Deleting "t" from "eat" adds 116 to the sum.
 | 
						|
At the end, both strings are equal, and 115 + 116 = 231 is the minimum sum possible to achieve this.
 | 
						|
</pre>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<pre>
 | 
						|
<strong>Input:</strong> s1 = "delete", s2 = "leet"
 | 
						|
<strong>Output:</strong> 403
 | 
						|
<strong>Explanation:</strong> Deleting "dee" from "delete" to turn the string into "let",
 | 
						|
adds 100[d] + 101[e] + 101[e] to the sum.
 | 
						|
Deleting "e" from "leet" adds 101[e] to the sum.
 | 
						|
At the end, both strings are equal to "let", and the answer is 100+101+101+101 = 403.
 | 
						|
If instead we turned both strings into "lee" or "eet", we would get answers of 433 or 417, which are higher.

<p><strong>Constraints:</strong></p>
