"""
    Given two strings A and B of lowercase letters, return true if you can 
    swap two letters in A so the result is equal to B, otherwise, return false.

    Swapping letters is defined as taking two indices i and j (0-indexed) 
    such that i != j and swapping the characters at A[i] and A[j]. For example, 
    swapping at indices 0 and 2 in "abcd" results in "cbad".

    Example:
    Input: A = "ab", B = "ba"
    Output: true
    Explanation: You can swap A[0] = 'a' and A[1] = 'b' to get "ba", which is 
                 equal to B.

    Example:
    Input: A = "ab", B = "ab"
    Output: false
    Explanation: The only letters you can swap are A[0] = 'a' and A[1] = 'b', 
                 which results in "ba" != B.

    Example:
    Input: A = "aa", B = "aa"
    Output: true
    Explanation: You can swap A[0] = 'a' and A[1] = 'a' to get "aa", which is 
                 equal to B.

    Example:
    Input: A = "aaaaaaabc", B = "aaaaaaacb"
    Output: true

    Example:
    Input: A = "", B = "aa"
    Output: false

    Constraints:
        - 0 <= A.length <= 20000
        - 0 <= B.length <= 20000
        - A and B consist of lowercase letters.
