The problem

Given an integer n, return a list of all simplified fractions between 0 and 1 (exclusive) such that the denominator is less-than-or-equal-to n. You can return the answer in any order.

Example

Input: n = 2
Output: ["1/2"]
Explanation: "1/2" is the only unique fraction with a denominator less-than-or-equal-to 2.

python

def length_of_longest_substring(s: str) -> int:    last_seen = {}                    # char -> index    left = best = 0    for right, ch in enumerate(s):        if ch in last_seen and last_seen[ch] >= left:            left = last_seen[ch] + 1  # jump past it        last_seen[ch] = right        best = max(best, right - left + 1)    return best    last_seen = {}                    # char -> index

Approach

At each index r, the window's left edge is:

left r = max (left r -1, last[s r] + 1)

Time O(n): each character enters and leaves the window once.
Space O(min(n, k)): k is the size of the character set.
