    839 - Similar String Groups.

    Hard

    Two strings X and Y are similar if we can swap two letters (in different positions) of X, so that it equals Y. Also two strings X and Y are similar if they are equal.

    For example, "tars" and "rats" are similar (swapping at positions 0 and 2), and "rats" and "arts" are similar, but "star" is not similar to "tars", "rats", or "arts".

    Together, these form two connected groups by similarity: {"tars", "rats", "arts"} and {"star"}. Notice that "tars" and "arts" are in the same group even though they are not similar. Formally, each group is such that a word is in the group if and only if it is similar to at least one other word in the group.

    We are given a list strs of strings where every string in strs is an anagram of every other string in strs. How many groups are there?

    Example 1:

    Input: strs = "tars","rats","arts","star"

    Output: 2

    Example 2:

    Input: strs = "omv","ovm"

    Output: 1

    Constraints:

    • 1 <= strs.length <= 300

    • 1 <= strs[i].length <= 300

    • strs[i] consists of lowercase letters only.

    • All words in strs have the same length and are anagrams of each other.
