Prefix sum the number of occurrences of character c. Then do the binary search for every s[i] and find prefix sum with biggest index j such that d[i]-d[j]>=k (if d[] is prefix sum). Answer is minimum of such i-j+1.
what is prefix sum please?
Prefix sum is array that for each prefix_sum[i] counts (in this case) number of character c from 0 (if string is 0-indexed) to i. How we do that, well prefix_sum[i]=prefix_sum[i-1]. And if s[i] is certain character that we want, increment prefix_sum[i] by 1.
