Problem
You are given an array of logs. Each log is a space-delimited string of words, where the first word is the identifier.
There are two types of logs:
- Letter-logs: All words (except the identifier) consist of lowercase English letters.
- Digit-logs: All words (except the identifier) consist of digits.
Reorder these logs so that:
- The letter-logs come before all digit-logs.
- The letter-logs are sorted lexicographically by their contents. If their contents are the same, then sort them lexicographically by their identifiers.
- The digit-logs maintain their relative ordering.
Return the final order of the logs.
Examples
Constraints
- 1 <= logs.length <= 100
- 3 <= logs[i].length <= 100
- All the tokens of logs[i] are separated by a single space.
- logs[i] is guaranteed to have an identifier and at least one word after the identifier.
