Hello, my name is Brian Dyck, I am a full-time software engineer and a Computer Science graduate walking through HackerRank problems for new and old programmers alike. My goal is to help programmers build up skills and not just see the solutions to problems, but to learn how to think through the problems. Many new videos to come, so stay tuned!
Problem: Repeated String
Description:
Lilah has a string, s, of lowercase English letters that she repeated infinitely many times.
Given an integer, n, find and print the number of letter a's in the first n letters of Lilah's infinite string.
For example, if the string s = 'abcac' and n = 10, the substring we consider is abcacabcac, the first 10 characters of her infinite string. There are 4 occurrences of a in the substring.
