You have been given a string STR and a non-empty string PTR. Your task is to find all the starting indices of PTR’s anagram in STR.

An anagram of a string is another string which contains the same characters and is obtained by rearranging the characters.

For example: ‘SILENT’ and ‘LISTEN’ are anagrams of each other. ‘ABA’ and ‘ABB’ are not anagram because we can’t convert ‘ABA’ to ‘ABB’ by rearranging the characters of particular strings.

Note:

1. Both STR and PTR consist of English uppercase letters.
2. Length of string 'STR' will always be greater than or equal to the length of string ‘PTR’.
3. In case, there is no anagram substring, then return an empty sequence.
4. In case of more than one anagrams, return the indices in increasing order.
Problem approach

1-first I wrote a program to find weather two strings are anagram or not.
2- then I moved to 2 nd steps ie: how to store as there can be many different anagra
3-then I thought of map but first I stored single key value string in map in that case we can't capture the results 
4-then I took map with string as key and value as list of string

Ninja is given an integer ‘N’. One day Ninja decides to do the sum of all digits and replace the ‘N’ with the sum of digits until it becomes less than 10. Ninja wants to find what will be the value of ‘N’ after applying this operation.

Help Ninja in finding out this value.

Problem approach

1-first I wrote program to add simple digit with any carry forward
2-then I moved to calculate carry forward cases
3-in that case I did mod if digit is more than 10
4-problem was I was iterating from last digit and printing single digit post added Carrey forward
5-but if it came to first digit we need to write it as it is ie:6+7=13 so have to print as complete 13 not as 3
