Faster string query #35

Hello,
I think you can use a hash table to speed up the query.

  1. Create a hash table of words, with key values as characters, and values as positions of characters。
    Word: Hello
    User Input: eao
    image

2)Find the character entered by the user: ‘e’,
Find by hash table, find the index greater than 0 (you can use binary search)。
The word index is at position 1.

  1. Find the character entered by the user: ‘a’,
    Find by hash table, find index greater than 1 (you can use binary search)
    'A' not found, index does not move

4)Find the character entered by the user: ‘o’,
Find by hash table, find the index greater than 0 (you can use binary search)。
The word index is at position 4.

I'm not familiar with js, I can't implement it with code, I'm really sorry.
