text: Count of distinct permutation of a String obtained by swapping only unequal characters | Function to calculate total number of valid permutations ; Creating count which is equal to the Total number of characters present and ans that will store the number of unique permutations ; Storing frequency of each character present in the string ; Adding count of characters by excluding characters equal to current char ; Reduce the frequency of the current character and count by 1 , so that it cannot interfere with the calculations of the same elements present to the right of it . ; Return ans + 1 ( Because the given string is also a unique permutation ) ; Driver Code
