Problem

Given a string s, find the length of the longest substring without repeating characters.

Example

Example 1:

Input: s = "abcabcbb"
Output: 3
Explanation: The answer is "abc", with the length of 3.
Example 2:

Input: s = "bbbbb"
Output: 1
Explanation: The answer is "b", with the length of 1.
Example 3:

Input: s = "pwwkew"
Output: 3
Explanation: The answer is "wke", with the length of 3.
Notice that the answer must be a substring, "pwke" is a subsequence and not a substring.

Code

``` var lengthOfLongestSubstring = function(s) { let max = 0; let str = “”; for (let i = 0; i < s.length; i++) { let char = s.charAt(i); let index = str.indexOf(char); if (index > -1) { str = str.substr(index + 1); } str += char; max = Math.max(max, str.length); } return max; };
