Word Pattern

Given a pattern and a string s, find if s follows the same pattern.

Here follow means a full match, such that there is a bijection between a letter in pattern and a non-empty word in s.

 

Example 1:

Input: pattern = "abba", s = "dog cat cat dog"
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: pattern = "abba", s = "dog cat cat fish"
Output: false

Example 3:

Input: pattern = "aaaa", s = "dog cat cat dog"
Output: false

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= pattern.length <= 300
  • pattern contains only lower-case English letters.
  • 1 <= s.length <= 3000
  • s contains only lowercase English letters and spaces ' '.
  • s does not contain any leading or trailing spaces.
  • All the words in s are separated by a single space.
SOLUTION:
class Solution:
    def wordPattern(self, pattern: str, s: str) -> bool:
        patt = []
        pattset = {}
        i = 0
        for p in pattern:
            if p not in pattset:
                pattset[p] = i
                i += 1
            patt.append(pattset[p])
        words = []
        wordset = {}
        i = 0
        for w in s.split():
            if w not in wordset:
                wordset[w] = i
                i += 1
            words.append(wordset[w])
        return patt == words
