Description

Given an array of integers cost and an integer target, return the maximum integer you can paint under the following rules:

- The cost of painting a digit (i + 1) is given by cost[i] (0-indexed).

- The total cost used must be equal to target.

- The integer does not have 0 digits.

Since the answer may be very large, return it as a string. If there is no way to paint any integer given the condition, return "0".

Example 1:

Input: cost = [4,3,2,5,6,7,2,5,5], target = 9
Output: "7772"
Explanation: The cost to paint the digit '7' is 2, and the digit '2' is 3. Then cost("7772") = 2*3+ 3*1 = 9. You could also paint "977", but "7772" is the largest number.
Digit cost
1 -> 4
2 -> 3
3 -> 2
4 -> 5
5 -> 6
6 -> 7
7 -> 2
8 -> 5
9 -> 5

Example 2:

Input: cost = [7,6,5,5,5,6,8,7,8], target = 12
Output: "85"
Explanation: The cost to paint the digit '8' is 7, and the digit '5' is 5. Then cost("85") = 7 + 5 = 12.

Example 3:

Input: cost = [2,4,6,2,4,6,4,4,4], target = 5
Output: "0"
Explanation: It is impossible to paint any integer with total cost equal to target.
