  1. Implement strstr Basic Accuracy: 50.08% Submissions: 50457 Points: 1 Your task is to implement the function strstr. The function takes two strings as arguments (s,x) and locates the occurrence of the string x in the string s. The function returns and integer denoting the first occurrence of the string x in s (0 based indexing).

Example 1:

Input: s = GeeksForGeeks, x = Fr Output: -1 Explanation: Fr is not present in the string GeeksForGeeks as substring.

Example 2:

Input: s = GeeksForGeeks, x = For Output: 5 Explanation: For is present as substring in GeeksForGeeks from index 5 (0 based indexing).

Your Task: You don't have to take any input. Just complete the strstr() function which takes two strings str, target as an input parameter. The function returns -1 if no match if found else it returns an integer denoting the first occurrence of the x in the string s.

Expected Time Complexity: O(|s|*|x|) Expected Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Note : Try to solve the question in constant space complexity.

Constraints: 1 <= |s|,|x| <= 1000

Take the reference from here

public class Strstr {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    String s = "geeksforgeeks";
    String x = "for";
    int n = x.length();

    for(int i=0;i<s.length();i++) {
        if(s.substring(i,i+n).equals(x))
        System.out.println("Present");

    }
}

}
