    880 - Decoded String at Index\.

    Medium

    You are given an encoded string s. To decode the string to a tape, the encoded string is read one character at a time and the following steps are taken:

    • If the character read is a letter, that letter is written onto the tape.

    • If the character read is a digit d, the entire current tape is repeatedly written d - 1 more times in total.

    Given an integer k, return the <code>k<sup>th</sup></code> letter ( 1-indexed) in the decoded string.

    Example 1:

    Input: s = "leet2code3", k = 10

    Output: "o"

    Explanation: The decoded string is "leetleetcodeleetleetcodeleetleetcode". The 10<sup>th</sup> letter in the string is "o".

    Example 2:

    Input: s = "ha22", k = 5

    Output: "h"

    Explanation: The decoded string is "hahahaha". The 5<sup>th</sup> letter is "h".

    Example 3:

    Input: s = "a2345678999999999999999", k = 1

    Output: "a"

    Explanation: The decoded string is "a" repeated 8301530446056247680 times. The 1<sup>st</sup> letter is "a".

    Constraints:

    • 2 &lt;= s.length &lt;= 100

    • s consists of lowercase English letters and digits 2 through 9.

    • s starts with a letter.

    • <code>1 <= k <= 10<sup>9</sup></code>

    • It is guaranteed that k is less than or equal to the length of the decoded string.

    • The decoded string is guaranteed to have less than <code>2<sup>63</sup></code> letters.
