2414. Length of the Longest Alphabetical Continuous Substring

Problem

An alphabetical continuous string is a string consisting of consecutive letters in the alphabet. In other words, it is any substring of the string "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz".

• For example, "abc" is an alphabetical continuous string, while "acb" and "za" are not.

Given a string s consisting of lowercase letters only, return the length of the longest alphabetical continuous substring.

 

Example 1:

Input: s = "abacaba"
Output: 2
Explanation: There are 4 distinct continuous substrings: "a", "b", "c" and "ab".
"ab" is the longest continuous substring.

Example 2:

Input: s = "abcde"
Output: 5
Explanation: "abcde" is the longest continuous substring.

 

Constraints:

• 1 <= s.length <= 105
• s consists of only English lowercase letters.
