Strings formed from given characters without any consecutive repeating characters

Given an array of strings arr[] and a string str, the task is to print all the strings from the array arr which follow the below conditions:

The resultant strings shouldn’t contain any consecutive repeating characters.
The resultant strings should be formed by using only the characters from the string str.

Examples:

Input: arr[] = { “AABCDA”, “ABCDZADC”, “ABCDBCA”, “ABCDABDCA” }, str = “ADCB”
Output: ABCDABDCA ABCDBCA
Input: arr[] = { “A”, “B”, “AB”, “ACB” }, str = “AB”
Output: A B AB

Approach: The idea is to iterate through the array and for every string, check if it contains any consecutive repeating characters and any characters other than those mentioned in the string str. If either of the above conditions passes, then continue to check the next string. Else, print the string.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// CPP implementation of the above approach
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to check whether the string contains
// any consecutive repetitive characters
// and any characters other than those in str
bool check(string s, string str)
{
    string chars = s;
     
    set<char> st;
    // Valid characters check
    for(int i = 0; i < str.length(); i++)
        st.insert(str[i]);
    for (char c : chars) {
        if(st.find(c) == st.end())
        return false;
    }
 
    // Nonrepetitive check
    for (int i = 0; i < chars.length() - 1; i++) {
        if (chars[i] == chars[i + 1]) {
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}
     
     
// Function to print the strings which
// satisfy the mentioned conditions
void getStrings(string str, vector<string> arr)
{
    // Iterate through all the strings
    // in the array.
    for (int i = 0; i <arr.size(); i++) {
 
        // check function to check the
        // conditions for every string
        if (check(arr[i], str)) {
            cout<<arr[i]<<" ";
        }
    }
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    string str = "ABCD";
    vector<string> arr({"AABCDA", "ABCDZADC","ABCDBCA", "ABCDABDCA"});
    getStrings(str, arr);
}

            // check function to check the

            if (check(arr[i], str)) {
                System.out.print(arr[i] + " ");
            }
