Count of substrings containing exactly K vowels

Given string str containing both uppercase and lowercase letters, and an integer K. The task is to find the count of substrings containing exactly K vowels (maybe repetitive).

Examples:

Input: str = “aeiou”, K = 2
Output: 4
Explanation: The substrings are “ae”, “ei”, “io”, “ou”.

Input: str = “TrueGeek”, K = 3
Output: 5
Explanation: All such possible substrings are:
“TrueGe”, “rueGe”, “ueGe”, “eGee”, “eGeek”.

 

Approach: To solution of this problem is based on greedy approach. Generate all substrings and for each substring check the count of vowels. Follow the steps mentioned below.

  • Generate all the substrings. For each substring do the following
    • Store the count of occurrences of vowels.
    • Check if a new character in the substring is a vowel or not.
    • If it is a vowel, increment count of vowels found
    • Now for each substring, if the count of vowels is K, increment the final count.
  • Return the final count as the required answer at the end.

Below is the implementation of the above code.

C++




// C++ code to implement above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
  
#define MAX 128
  
// Function to check whether
// a character is vowel or not
bool isVowel(char x)
{
    return (x == 'a' || x == 'e' || 
            x == 'i' || x == 'o' || x == 'u' 
            || x == 'A' || x == 'E' || 
            x == 'I' || x == 'O' || x == 'U');
}
  
// Function to find the count of
// substring with k vowels
int get(string str, int k)
{
  
    int n = str.length();
  
    // Stores the count of
    // substring with K vowels
    int ans = 0;
  
    // Consider all substrings 
    // beginning with str[i]
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        int count = 0;
  
        // Consider all substrings 
        // between [i, j]
        for (int j = i; j < n; j++) {
  
            // If this is a vowel, for this
            // substring, increment count.
            if (isVowel(str[j])) {
                count++;
            }
  
            // If vowel count becomes k,
            // then increment final count.
            if (count == k) {
                ans++;
            }
  
            if (count > k)
                break;
        }
    }
    return ans;
}
  
// Driver code
int main(void)
{
    string s = "aeiou";
    int K = 2;
    cout << get(s, K);
    return 0;
}
