Check if Number Has Equal Digit Count and Digit Value

You are given a 0-indexed string num of length n consisting of digits.

Return true if for every index i in the range 0 <= i < n, the digit i occurs num[i] times in num, otherwise return false.

Example 1:

Input: num = "1210"
Output: true
Explanation:
num[0] = '1'. The digit 0 occurs once in num.
num[1] = '2'. The digit 1 occurs twice in num.
num[2] = '1'. The digit 2 occurs once in num.
num[3] = '0'. The digit 3 occurs zero times in num.
The condition holds true for every index in "1210", so return true.

Example 2:

Input: num = "030"
Output: false
Explanation:
num[0] = '0'. The digit 0 should occur zero times, but actually occurs twice in num.
num[1] = '3'. The digit 1 should occur three times, but actually occurs zero times in num.
num[2] = '0'. The digit 2 occurs zero times in num.
The indices 0 and 1 both violate the condition, so return false.

Constraints:

  • n == num.length
  • 1 <= n <= 10
  • num consists of digits.

SOLUTION:

from collections import Counter

class Solution:
    def digitCount(self, num: str) -> bool:
        n = len(num)
        ctr = Counter(num)
        for i in range(n):
            if ctr[str(i)] != int(num[i]):
                return False
        return True
