Accounts Merge

Given a list of accounts where each element accounts[i] is a list of strings. The first element accounts[i][0] is a name, and the rest of the elements are emails representing emails of the account.

Merge these accounts. Two accounts definitely belong to the same person if there is some common email in both accounts. Note that even if two accounts have the same name, they may belong to different people, because people could have the same name. A person can have any number of accounts initially, but all of their accounts definitely have the same name.

After merging the accounts, return the accounts in the following format:

  • The first element of each account is the name.
  • The rest of the elements are emails in sorted order.
  • The accounts themselves can be returned in any order.
Example 1
Inputaccounts = [["John","johnsmith@mail.com","john_newyork@mail.com"],["John","johnsmith@mail.com","john00@mail.com"],["Mary","mary@mail.com"],["John","johnnybravo@mail.com"]]
Output[["John","john00@mail.com","john_newyork@mail.com","johnsmith@mail.com"],["Mary","mary@mail.com"],["John","johnnybravo@mail.com"]]
The first and second John's accounts are merged because they share "johnsmith@mail.com", while Mary and the other John remain separate accounts.
Example 2
Inputaccounts = [["Gabe","Gabe0@m.co","Gabe3@m.co","Gabe1@m.co"],["Kevin","Kevin3@m.co","Kevin5@m.co","Kevin0@m.co"],["Ethan","Ethan5@m.co","Ethan4@m.co","Ethan0@m.co"],["Hanzo","Hanzo3@m.co","Hanzo1@m.co","Hanzo0@m.co"],["Fern","Fern5@m.co","Fern1@m.co","Fern0@m.co"]]
Output[["Ethan","Ethan0@m.co","Ethan4@m.co","Ethan5@m.co"],["Gabe","Gabe0@m.co","Gabe1@m.co","Gabe3@m.co"],["Hanzo","Hanzo0@m.co","Hanzo1@m.co","Hanzo3@m.co"],["Kevin","Kevin0@m.co","Kevin3@m.co","Kevin5@m.co"],["Fern","Fern0@m.co","Fern1@m.co","Fern5@m.co"]]
No accounts share an email, so each account remains separate with its emails sorted after the name.

Constraints

  • 1 <= accounts.length <= 1000
  • 2 <= accounts[i].length <= 10
  • 1 <= accounts[i][j].length <= 30
  • accounts[i][0] consists of English letters.
  • accounts[i][j] (for j > 0) is a valid email.
