<p>Given an array of strings <code>words</code> and an integer <code>k</code>, return <em>the </em><code>k</code><em> most frequent strings</em>.</p>

<p>Return the answer <strong>sorted</strong> by <strong>the frequency</strong> from highest to lowest. Sort the words with the same frequency by their <strong>lexicographical order</strong>.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<strong>Explanation:</strong> &quot;i&quot; and &quot;love&quot; are the two most frequent words.
Note that &quot;i&quot; comes before &quot;love&quot; due to a lower alphabetical order.
