HackerEarth Binary Swap problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 2024
In this HackerEarth Binary Swap problem solution You are given two binary strings A and B of equal length. You have a type of opertion in which you can swap any two elements of string B. Your task is to find the minimum number of operations required to convert string B into string A. If it is not possible, print -1.
