[Leetcode]819. Most Common Word

📄 Description

Given a string paragraph and a string array of the banned words banned, return the most frequent word that is not banned. It is guaranteed there is at least one word that is not banned, and that the answer is unique.

The words in paragraph are case-insensitive and the answer should be returned in lowercase.

Example 1:

Input: paragraph = "Bob hit a ball, the hit BALL flew far after it was hit.", banned = ["hit"]
Output: "ball"
Explanation: 
"hit" occurs 3 times, but it is a banned word.
"ball" occurs twice (and no other word does), so it is the most frequent non-banned word in the paragraph. 
Note that words in the paragraph are not case sensitive,
that punctuation is ignored (even if adjacent to words, such as "ball,"), 
and that "hit" isn't the answer even though it occurs more because it is banned.

Example 2:

Input: paragraph = "a.", banned = []
Output: "a"

Constraints:

  • 1 <= paragraph.length <= 1000
  • paragraph consists of English letters, space ' ', or one of the symbols: "!?',;.".
  • 0 <= banned.length <= 100
  • 1 <= banned[i].length <= 10
  • banned[i] consists of only lowercase English letters.

💻 My submission

class Solution:
    def mostCommonWord(self, paragraph: str, banned: List[str]) -> str:
        
        words=[x for x in re.sub('[^\w]', ' ', paragraph).lower().split() if x not in banned]
        
        counter=Counter(words)
        
        return counter.most_common(1)[0][0]

🔨 How to solve the problm

1. 정규식을 사용하여 입력값에 대한 전처리 진행

  • 단어 문자가 아닌 모든 문자를 공백으로 치환한다.

2. Counter 객체 활용하여 most_common(1) 로 답 구하기
