In this HackerRank Password Cracker problem solution, There are n users registered on the website CuteKittens.com. Each of them has a unique password represented by pass[1], pass[2], …, pass[N]. As this is a very lovely site, many people want to access those awesomely cute pics of the kittens. But the adamant admin does not want the site to be available to the general public, so only those people who have passwords can access it.
Yu, being an awesome hacker finds a loophole in the password verification system. A string which is a concatenation of one or more passwords, in any order, is also accepted by the password verification system. Any password can appear 0 or more times in that string. Given access to each of the N passwords, and also have a string loginAttempt, determine whether this string be accepted by the password verification system of the website. If all of the loginAttempt strings can be created by concatenating password strings, it is accepted. In this case, return the passwords in the order they must be concatenated, each separated by a single space on one line. If the password attempt will not be accepted, return ‘WRONG PASSWORD.
