3541: Find-Most-Frequent-Vowel-and-Consonant
Easy

table of contents

Simply just iterate through the string s and keep track of the frequency of each letter:

vector<int> frequency(26, 0);
for (char& c : s) {
    ++frequency[c - 'a'];
}

Then, iterate through the frequency array and keep track of the maximum count for a vowel and maximum count for a consonant:

int maxVowel = 0;
int maxConsonant = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 26; ++i) {
    if (i == 0 || i == 4 || i == 'i'-'a' || i == 'o'-'a' || i == 'u'-'a') {
        maxVowel = max(maxVowel, frequency[i]);
    } else {
        maxConsonant = max(maxConsonant, frequency[i]);
    }
}
return maxVowel + maxConsonant;

code

class Solution {
public:
    int maxFreqSum(string s) {
        vector<int> frequency(26, 0);
        for (char& c : s) {
            ++frequency[c - 'a'];
        }

        int maxVowel = 0;
        int maxConsonant = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < 26; ++i) {
            if (i == 0 || i == 4 || i == 'i'-'a' || i == 'o'-'a' || i == 'u'-'a') {
                maxVowel = max(maxVowel, frequency[i]);
            } else {
                maxConsonant = max(maxConsonant, frequency[i]);
            }
        }
        return maxVowel + maxConsonant;
    }
};
