- When the input is a special character, it means the sentence ends, and in this case, you need to return an empty list.
Your job is to implement the following functions:
The constructor function:
AutocompleteSystem(String[] sentences, int[] times):
This is the constructor. The input is historical data. Sentences
is a string array consists of previously typed sentences. Times
is the corresponding times a sentence has been typed. Your system shou
