Palindrome Pairs

Try to solve the Palindrome Pairs problem.

Statement

You are given a 0-indexed array of unique strings called words.

A palindrome pair is defined as a pair of indexes (i, j) where both i and j are within the valid range of the list of words (that is, 00 \leq i, j << words.length), and i is not equal to j. The key condition is that when the word at index i is concatenated with the word at index j (forming words[i] + words[j]), the resulting string must be a palindrome.

Your task is to return all valid palindrome pairs as a list of index pairs.

Additionally, your solution must have a time complexity of O(sum ofO(\text{sum of} words.length)).

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq words.length 1000\leq 1000

  • 00 \leq words[i].length 300\leq 300

  • words[i] consists of lowercase English letters

  • All strings in words unique
