Leetcode 438. Find All Anagrams in s String

Given a string s and a non-empty string p, find all the start indices of p‘s anagrams in s.

Strings consists of lowercase English letters only and the length of both strings s and p will not be larger than 20,100.

The order of output does not matter.

Example 1:

Input:
s: "cbaebabacd" p: "abc"

Output:
[0, 6]

Explanation:
The substring with start index = 0 is "cba", which is an anagram of "abc".
The substring with start index = 6 is "bac", which is an anagram of "abc".

Example 2:

Input:
s: "abab" p: "ab"

Output:
[0, 1, 2]

Explanation:
The substring with start index = 0 is "ab", which is an anagram of "ab".
The substring with start index = 1 is "ba", which is an anagram of "ab".
The substring with start index = 2 is "ab", which is an anagram of "ab".

思路：使用滑动窗口的思想

s = cbaebabacd

p = abc

w = [cb]

w+a = [cba]，如果counter之后等于counter(p), 输出头index。在remove 第一个字母c的时候，注意这是counter c的value是不是1。如果是1的话，直接remove。不是1的话，减1。
