3295. Report Spam Message

Description

You are given an array of strings message and an array of strings bannedWords.

An array of words is considered spam if there are at least two words in it that exactly match any word in bannedWords.

Return true if the array message is spam, and false otherwise.

Example 1:

Input: message = ["hello","world","leetcode"], bannedWords = ["world","hello"]

Output: true

Explanation:

The words "hello" and "world" from the message array both appear in the bannedWords array.

Example 2:

Input: message = ["hello","programming","fun"], bannedWords = ["world","programming","leetcode"]

Output: false

Explanation:

Only one word from the message array ("programming") appears in the bannedWords array.

Constraints:

1 <= message.length, bannedWords.length <= 10⁵
1 <= message[i].length, bannedWords[i].length <= 15
message[i] and bannedWords[i] consist only of lowercase English letters.

Solutions

Solution 1: Hash Table

We use a hash table \(s\) to store all the words in \(\textit{bannedWords}\). Then, we traverse each word in \(\textit{message}\). If the word appears in the hash table \(s\), we increment the counter \(cnt\) by one. If \(cnt\) is greater than or equal to \(2\), we return \(\text{true}\); otherwise, we return \(\text{false}\).

The time complexity is \(O((n + m) \times |w|)\), and the space complexity is \(O(m \times |w|)\). Here, \(n\) is the length of the array \(\textit{message}\), and \(m\) and \(|w|\) are the length of the array \(\textit{bannedWords}\) and the maximum length of the words in the array, respectively.
