Weighted Uniform Strings


Problem Statement :


A weighted string is a string of lowercase English letters where each letter has a weight. Character weights are 1 to 26  from  a to z  as shown below:

The weight of a string is the sum of the weights of its characters. For example:

A uniform string consists of a single character repeated zero or more times. For example, ccc and a are uniform strings, but bcb and cd are not.

Function Description

Complete the weightedUniformStrings function in the editor below.

weightedUniformStrings has the following parameter(s):
- string s: a string
- int queries[n]: an array of integers

Returns
- string[n]: an array of strings that answer the queries

Input Format

The first line contains a string s, the original string.
The second line contains an integer n, the number of queries.
Each of the next s lines contains an integer queries[i], the weight of a uniform subtring of s that may or may not exist.

Constraints


1  <=  length of s,n  <=  10^5
1  <=   queries[i]  <=  10^7
s will only contain lowercase English letters, ascii[a-z].

Queue using Two Stacks

A queue is an abstract data type that maintains the order in which elements were added to it, allowing the oldest elements to be removed from the front and new elements to be added to the rear. This is called a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) data structure because the first element added to the queue (i.e., the one that has been waiting the longest) is always the first one to be removed. A basic que
