Master Tries: insert/search/prefix, word search II, autocomplete, XOR trie for max XOR, and bitwise trie patterns with 5-language implementations.
Implement a Trie with insert, search, and startsWith operations. Core data structure for all prefix-based problems.
Trie that supports wildcard '.' matching any character. DFS through trie when '.' encountered, trying all children.
Find all words from a list in a grid. Build trie from words, DFS on grid while traversing trie simultaneously to prune early.
Replace each word in sentence with its shortest root from dictionary. Insert roots into trie; for each sentence word find shortest matching prefix.
