# 1859. Sorting the Sentence
Link: https://leetcode.com/problems/sorting-the-sentence/solutions/

A sentence is a list of words that are separated by a single space with no leading or trailing spaces. Each word consists of lowercase and uppercase English letters.

A sentence can be shuffled by appending the 1-indexed word position to each word then rearranging the words in the sentence.

For example, the sentence "This is a sentence" can be shuffled as "sentence4 a3 is2 This1" or "is2 sentence4 This1 a3".
Given a shuffled sentence s containing no more than 9 words, reconstruct and return the original sentence.

 

## Example 1:
```
Input: s = "is2 sentence4 This1 a3"
Output: "This is a sentence"
Explanation: Sort the words in s to their original positions "This1 is2 a3 sentence4", then remove the numbers.
```
## Example 2:
```
Input: s = "Myself2 Me1 I4 and3"
Output: "Me Myself and I"
Explanation: Sort the words in s to their original positions "Me1 Myself2 and3 I4", then remove the numbers.
 ```

## Constraints:
```
2 <= s.length <= 200
s consists of lowercase and uppercase English letters, spaces, and digits from 1 to 9.
The number of words in s is between 1 and 9.
The words in s are separated by a single space.
s contains no leading or trailing spaces.
```
## Solution

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(n)

  ``` java

 class Solution {
    public String sortSentence(String s) {
        StringBuilder build = new StringBuilder();
        String[] strArray = s.split(" ");
        String[] resArray = new String[strArray.length];

        for(String str: strArray) {
            resArray[str.charAt(str.length() -1) - '1'] = str.substring(0, str.length() -1);
        }

        for(int i =0; i < resArray.length; i++) {
            build.append(resArray[i]);

            if(i != resArray.length - 1){
                build.append(" ");
            }
            
        }
        
        return build.toString();
    }
}
  ```
