28. Find the Index of the First Occurrence in a String

Easy
Two Pointers String String Matching

Given two strings needle and haystack, return the index of the first occurrence of needle in haystack, or -1 if needle is not part of haystack.

Example 1:

Input: haystack = "sadbutsad", needle = "sad"
Output: 0
Explanation: "sad" occurs at index 0 and 6.
The first occurrence is at index 0, so we return 0.

Example 2:

Input: haystack = "leetcode", needle = "leeto"
Output: -1
Explanation: "leeto" did not occur in "leetcode", so we return -1.

Constraints:

  • 1 <= haystack.length, needle.length <= 10^4
  • haystack and needle consist of only lowercase English characters.
func strStr(haystack string, needle string) int {
	return strings.Index(haystack, needle)
}
