    820 - Short Encoding of Words\. Medium A **valid encoding** of an array of `words` is any reference string `s` and array of indices `indices` such that: * `words.length == indices.length` * The reference string `s` ends with the `'#'` character. * For each index `indices[i]`, the **substring** of `s` starting from `indices[i]` and up to (but not including) the next `'#'` character is equal to `words[i]`. Given an array of `words`, return _the **length of the shortest reference string**_ `s` _possible of any **valid encoding** of_ `words`_._ **Example 1:** **Input:** words = ["time", "me", "bell"] **Output:** 10 **Explanation:** A valid encoding would be s = `"time#bell#" and indices = [0, 2, 5`]. words[0] = "time", the substring of s starting from indices[0] = 0 to the next '#' is underlined in "time#bell#" words[1] = "me", the substring of s starting from indices[1] = 2 to the next '#' is underlined in "time#bell#" words[2] = "bell", the substring of s starting from indices[2] = 5 to the next '#' is underlined in "time#bell#" **Example 2:** **Input:** words = ["t"] **Output:** 2 **Explanation:** A valid encoding would be s = "t#" and indices = [0]. **Constraints:** * `1 <= words.length <= 2000` * `1 <= words[i].length <= 7` * `words[i]` consists of only lowercase letters.
