Distance minimale entre les mots [Amazon]
/*
* Question :
*
*
* Minimum Distance between words[AMAZON]
* Posted on June 12, 2018
*
* A string S is passed as the input.Two words w1 and w2 which are present in the string S are also passed as the input.
* The program must find the minimum distance d between W1 and W2 in S (in forward or reverse order)and print D as the output.
*
* Example 1:
*
* Input:
* The brown quick frog quick the
* the
* quick
* Output:
* 1
* Explanation:
* quick and the are adjacent as the last two words.Hence distance between them is 1.
*
*
* Example 2:
*
* Input:
* the quick the brown quick brown the frog
* quick
* frog
* Output:
* 3
