Solution: Word Pattern
Explore how to verify if a string follows a specified pattern by creating a one-to-one mapping between pattern characters and words using hash maps. This lesson guides you through implementing an efficient algorithm with linear time complexity, ensuring you grasp bijection concepts critical for solving coding interview challenges.

Statement
You are given a pattern and a string, s. You need to determine whether the string s follows the same pattern.
A string s is said to follow a pattern if a bijection exists between a character in the pattern and a non-empty word in s.
