Example 1:

Input: "A"

Example 3:

Input: "ZY"
Output: 701

Constraints:

1 <= s.length <= 7

Here is my solution:

 class Solution {
      public int titleToNumber(String s) {
         int result=0;
         for(char c:s.toCharArray())
             {
            int d=(int)(c)-'A'+1;

    result=result*26+d;

          }
       return result;

  }
  }
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
