Given a string str you have to answer several queries on that string. In each query you will be provided two values L and R and you have to find the number of distinct characters in the sub string from index L to index R (inclusive) of the original string.


Example 1:

Input: str = "abcbaed",
Query = {{1,4},{2,4},{1,7}}
Output: {3,2,5}
Explanation: For the first query distinct
characters from [1, 4] are a, b and c.
For the second query distinct characters from
[2, 4] are b and c.
For the third query distinct characters from
[1, 7] are a, b, c, d and e.


Your Task:
You don't need to read or print anyhting. Your task is to complete the function SolveQueries() which takes str and Query as input parameter and returns a list containing answer for each query.


Expected Time Complexity: O(max(26*length of str, 26 * No of queries))
Expected Space Complexity: O(26 * length of str)
