You are given a string s, which is known to be a concatenation of anagrams of some string t.Return the minimum possible length of the string t.An anagram is formed by rearranging the letters of a string. For example, "aab", "aba", and, "baa" are anagrams of "aab". Example 1:Input: s = "abba"Output: 2Explanation:One possible string t could be "ba".Example 2:Input: s = "cdef"Output: 4Explanation:One possible string t could be "cdef", notice that t can be equal to s. Constraints:1 <= s.length <= 105s consist only of lowercase English letters.

Solution

To solve this problem, we can use the concept of sets in Python. A set is an unordered collection of unique elements.

Here are the steps to solve this problem:

  1. Convert the string s into a set. This will remove all duplicate characters because sets only contain unique elements.

  2. Get the length of the set. This will give us the minimum possible length of the string t because t can be any anagram of s.

Here is the Python code that implements these steps:

def min_length(s):
    return len(set(s))

This function works by converting the string s into a set and then returning the length of the set. The length of the set is the minimum possible length of the string t because t can be any anagram of s.

For example, if s = "abba", the set of s is {'a', 'b'}, and the length of the set is 2. Therefore, the minimum possible length of the string t is 2.

If s = "cdef", the set of s is {'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'}, and the length of the set is 4. Therefore, the minimum possible length of the string t is `4

Given two strings A and B, find the minimum number of characters that need to be deleted from these 2 strings to make them anagrams of each other.

Given 2 strings, check if they are anagrams. An anagram is a rearrangement of the letters of one word to form another word. In other words, some permutations of string A must be the same as string B.Input FormatThe first line of input contains T - the number of test cases.
