問題提起
Given a string containing digits from 2-9 inclusive, return all possible letter combinations that the number could represent. Return the answer in any order.
A mapping of digits to letters (just like on the telephone buttons) is given below. Note that 1 does not map to any letters.
2: abc, 3: def, 4: ghi, 5: jkl, 6: mno, 7: pqrs, 8: tuv, 9: wxyz
Implement a function letterCombinations(digits: str) -> list.
- •0 <= digits.length <= 4
- •digits[i] is a digit in the range ['2', '9']
例
"23"
["ad","ae","af","bd","be","bf","cd","ce","cf"]
Digit 2 maps to 'abc' and digit 3 maps to 'def'. All combinations of one letter from each digit are generated.
""
[]
Empty input produces no combinations.
"2"
["a","b","c"]
Digit 2 maps to 'abc'.

Edge Cases to Watch
- Empty input structures
- Single element inputs
- Large numerical bounds

When dealing with Backtracking data patterns.
- Are constraints clear?
- Is there a linear or logarithmic optimization possible?
