Just remember that there will be two conditions to check. (Look out for abc and abcde in below test cases):
The prefix string comes before the longer string.
- 7
- aab
- defgab
- abc
- abcde
- cedaaa
- bbbbbbbbbb
- jabjjjad
Prefix string will come after the longer string.
- 7
- aab
- defgab
- abcde
- abc
- cedaaa
- bbbbbbbbbb
- jabjjjad
Make sure that you get correct output for both the cases, and you may trust that other things will fall in place.
@bokamvinaykumar Please upload the test cases.
These instructions are not clear. They say "Output GOOD SET if the set is valid. Else, output BAD SET followed by the first string for which the condition fails."
Is the first string for which the condition fails the string that is a prefix of another string, the string that is prefixed by another string, or the first string that appears ordinally in the input list?
I believe that the test cases here are not all correct : let me give you an example I got this test case

the output is supposed to be (as suggested by the test case):
BAD SET d
How come?????
is there any word which is a prefix of "d"?
if you think so, give me which one???
