You are getting wrong answers for these test cases

5

correct ans = AAAAB

ABCDE

correct ans = ABCDE

bro, if we pick “D” and move it last position then we will get “ABCDD” and “ABCDD” is lexicographically smaller than “ABDCD” .

for the test case DABC your code will give ans ADBC but the correct ans would be
ABCD (by moving D to the end)
