1704. Determine if String Halves Are Alike
Easy
You are given a string
s of even length. Split this string into two halves of equal lengths, and let a be the first half and b be the second half.Two strings are alike if they have the same number of vowels (
'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u', 'A', 'E', 'I', 'O', 'U'). Notice that s contains uppercase and lowercase letters.Return
true if a and b are alike. Otherwise, return false.Example 1:
Input: s = "book"
Output:
true
Explanation:
a = "bo" and b = "ok". a has 1 vowel and b has 1 vowel. Therefore, they are alike.
Example 2:
Input: s = "textbook"
Output:
false
Explanation:
a = "text" and b = "book". a has 1 vowel whereas b has 2. Therefore, they are not alike.
Notice that the vowel o is counted twice.
Constraints:
2 <= s.length <= 1000s.lengthis even.sconsists of uppercase and lowercase letters.
