# 859.Buddy Strings

**859.Buddy Strings**

难度:Easy

> Given two strings A and B of lowercase letters, return true if and only if we can swap two letters in A so that the result equals B.

```
Example 1:

Input: A = "ab", B = "ba"
Output: true
Example 2:

Input: A = "ab", B = "ab"
Output: false
Example 3:

Input: A = "aa", B = "aa"
Output: true
Example 4:

Input: A = "aaaaaaabc", B = "aaaaaaacb"
Output: true
Example 5:

Input: A = "", B = "aa"
Output: false
 

Note:

0 <= A.length <= 20000
0 <= B.length <= 20000
A and B consist only of lowercase letters.
```

判断两个字串是否相等，如果相等，看看有没有重复的字母，有则可以交换，没有则返回false。 两个字串不相等，则比较不相等的位置，是不是刚好有两个，并判断两个是不是交换之后相等。

```
class Solution {
public:
    bool buddyStrings(string A, string B) {
        if(A.length() != B.length() ) return false;
        if(A==B) 
        {
            vector<int>alpha(26,0);
            for(auto c:A)
            {
                if(++alpha[c-'a'] >1) return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
        int count=0;
        vector<int> index;
        for(int i=0;i<A.length();i++)
        {
            if(A[i] !=B[i]) 
            {
                count++;
                index.push_back(i);
            }
        }
        if(count !=2) return false;
        //cout<< index[0] <<" "<<index[1]<<endl;
        if(A[index[0]] == B[index[1]] && A[index[1]] == B[index[0]]) return true;
        return false;
    }
};
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://dfine.gitbook.io/leetcode/859.buddy_strings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
