Reverse Vowels of a String Problem & Solution
Given a string s
, reverse only all the vowels in the string and return it.
The vowels are 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', and 'u', and they can appear in both cases.
See the reverse vowels of a string problem on LeetCode.
C++ Solution
#pragma GCC optimize("Ofast")
#pragma GCC optimization("unroll-loops")
static const int _=[](){std::ios::sync_with_stdio(false);cin.tie(nullptr);cout.tie(nullptr);return 0;}();
class Solution {
public:

{ 'e', true }, { 'E', true },
{ 'i', true }, { 'I', true },
{ 'o', true }, { 'O', true },
{ 'u', true }, { 'U', true },
};
int low = 0;
int high = s.size() - 1;
while (low < high) {
while (low < high && vowels.find(s[low]) == vowels.end()) {
++low;
}
