Solving Leetcode Problem 383: Ransom Note

Join us in this video as we solve Leetcode Problem 383: Ransom Note. This problem challenges us to determine if we can construct a ransom note from a given magazine string.

Problem Statement:
Given an arbitrary ransom note string and another string containing letters from all the magazines, write a function that will return true if the ransom note can be constructed from the magazines; otherwise, it will return false.

In this video, we'll walk through a solution with a time complexity of O(n) and space complexity of O(n). We'll discuss the approach of using a hashmap to store the frequency of characters in the magazine string and then checking if the ransom note characters can be constructed from the magazine characters.

Follow along as we implement this efficient solution step by step, explaining the logic behind each decision. Learn how to handle edge cases and optimize your code for better performance.
