Isomorphic Strings

/**

Given two strings s and t, determine if they are isomorphic.

Two strings are isomorphic if the characters in s can be replaced to get t.

All occurrences of a character must be replaced with another character while preserving the order of characters. No two characters may map to the same character but a character may map to itself.

Example 1:

Input: s = "egg", t = "add"
Output: true

Example 2:

Input: s = "foo", t = "bar"
Output: false

Example 3:

Input: s = "paper", t = "title"
Output: true

Note:
You may assume both s and t have the same length.

The main idea is to store the last seen positions of current (i-th) characters in both strings. If previously stored positions are different then we know that the fact they're occuring in the current i-th position simultaneously is a mistake. We could use a map for storing but as we deal with chars which are basically ints and can be used as indices we can do the whole thing with an array.

Check the code below. Happy coding!
