Problem statement

Hello! Did you navigate here from my sister question Password Strength 🐣?

Another check pwd strength question you might be interested in:

Find the password strength for a given password. For example, if the password is "good", then iterate over all substrings and find the distinct character counts:

g = 1,
o = 1,
o = 1,
d = 1,
go = 2,
oo = 1,
od = 2,
goo = 2,
ood = 2,
good = 3

At the end, add all the distinct character counts to determine the password strength. In this case, the password strength is 16.

Function

findPasswordStrength(password: String) → int

Complete the function findPasswordStrength in the editor.

findPasswordStrength has the following parameter:

String password: the password string

Returns

int: the password strength

Examples

Example 1

password = "good"return = 16

Iterate over all substrings and find the distinct character counts:

g = 1,
o = 1,
o = 1,
d = 1,
go = 2,
oo = 1,
od = 2,
goo = 2,
ood = 2,
good = 3

The total strength is the sum of all distinct character counts: 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 = 16.

Example 2

password = "aa"return = 2

Iterate over all substrings and find the distinct character counts: "a" "a" "aa" We return 2 because both "a" and "a" have dictinct character counts of 1. 1 + 1 = 2 This case was added on 03-22-2025 :) Here is the source img -
