Your task is to remove **all** digits by doing this operation repeatedly: Delete the _first_ digit and the **closest** non-digit character to its _left_. Return the resulting string after removing all digits. **Note** that the operation _cannot_ be performed on a digit that does not have any non-digit character to its left. **Example 1:** **Input:** s = \"abc\" **Output:** \"abc\" **Explanation:** There is no digit in the string. **Example 2:** **Input:** s = \"cb34\" **Output:** \"\" **Explanation:** First, we apply the operation on `s[2]`, and `s` becomes `\"c4\"`. Then we apply the operation on `s[1]`, and `s` becomes `\"\"`. **Constraints:** `1 <= s.length <= 100` `s` consists only of lowercase English letters and digits. The input is generated such that it is possible to delete all digits.", "test_case": [ { "label": "Example 1", "input": "s = \"abc\"", "output": "\"abc\" " }, { "label": "Example 2", "input": "s = \"cb34\"", "output": "\"\" " } ], "constraints": [ "Delete the first digit and the closest non-digit character to its left.", "1 <= s.length <= 100", "s consists only of lowercase English letters and digits.", "The input is generated such that it is possible to delete all digits." ], "python_template": "class Solution(object):\n def clearDigits(self, s):\n \"\"\"\n :type s: str\n :rtype: str\n \"\"\"\n ", "java_template": "class Solution {\n public String clearDigits(String s) {\n \n }\n}", "metadata": { "func_name": "clearDigits" } }
