Problem: Reorganize String

med
30 min
Explore how to reorganize a string to ensure no two adjacent characters repeat by recognizing and applying the top k elements pattern. This lesson guides you through understanding the problem constraints and developing solutions to implement valid rearrangements or return an empty string.

Statement

Given a string, str, rearrange it so that any two adjacent characters are not the same. If such a reorganization of the characters is possible, output any possible valid arrangement. Otherwise, return an empty string.

Constraints:

  • 11\leq str.length 500\leq500
  • Input string consists of lowercase English letters.
