1234 - Replace the Substring for Balanced String.

Medium

You are given a string s of length n containing only four kinds of characters: 'Q', 'W', 'E', and 'R'.

A string is said to be balanced if each of its characters appears n / 4 times where n is the length of the string.

Return the minimum length of the substring that can be replaced with any other string of the same length to make s balanced. If s is already balanced , return 0.

Example 1:

Input: s = “QWER”

Output: 0

Explanation: s is already balanced.

Example 2:

Input: s = “QQWE”

Output: 1

Explanation: We need to replace a ‘Q’ to ‘R’, so that “RQWE” (or “QRWE”) is balanced.

Example 3:

Input: s = “QQQW”

Output: 2

Explanation: We can replace the first “QQ” to “ER”.

Constraints:

• n == s.length
• 4 <= n <= 105
• n is a multiple of 4.
• s contains only 'Q', 'W', 'E', and 'R'.
