Find And Replace in String

You are given a 0-indexed string s that you must perform k replacement operations on. The replacement operations are given as three 0-indexed parallel arrays, indices, sources, and targets, all of length k.

To complete the i^th replacement operation:

  • Check if the substring sources[i] occurs at index indices[i] in the original string s.
  • If it does not occur, do nothing.
  • Otherwise if it does occur, replace that substring with targets[i].

All replacement operations must occur simultaneously, meaning the replacement operations should not affect the indexing of each other. The testcases will be generated such that the replacements will not overlap.

Return the resulting string after performing all replacement operations on s.

A substring is a contiguous sequence of characters in a string.

Example 1
Inputs = "abcd", indices = [0,2], sources = ["a","cd"], targets = ["eee","ffff"]
Output"eeebffff"
"a" occurs at index 0 in s, so it is replaced with "eee", and "cd" occurs at index 2 in s, so it is replaced with "ffff".
Example 2
Inputs = "abcd", indices = [0,2], sources = ["ab","ec"], targets = ["eee","ffff"]
Output"eeecd"
"ab" occurs at index 0 in s, so it is replaced with "eee", while "ec" does not occur at index 2 in s, so nothing is done for that operation.

Constraints

  • 1 <= s.length <= 1000
  • k == indices.length == sources.length == targets.length
  • 1 <= k <= 100
  • 0 <= indexes[i] < s.length
  • 1 <= sources[i].length, targets[i].length <= 50
  • s consists of only lowercase English letters.
  • sources[i] and targets[i] consist of only lowercase English letters.
