Minimum Number of Valid Strings to Form Target I
<p>You are given an array of strings <code>words</code> and a string <code>target</code>.</p>

<p>A string <code>x</code> is called <strong>valid</strong> if <code>x</code> is a <span data-keyword="string-prefix">prefix</span> of <strong>any</strong> string in <code>words</code>.</p>

<p>Return the <strong>minimum</strong> number of <strong>valid</strong> strings that can be <em>concatenated</em> to form <code>target</code>. If it is <strong>not</strong> possible to form <code>target</code>, return <code>-1</code>.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p>

<div class="example-block">
<p><strong>Input:</strong> <span class="example-io">words = [&quot;abc&quot;,&quot;aaaaa&quot;,&quot;bcdef&quot;], target = &quot;aabcdabc&quot;</span></p>

<p><strong>Output:</strong> <span class="example-io">3</span></p>

<p><strong>Explanation:</strong></p>

<p>The target string can be formed by concatenating:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Prefix of length 2 of <code>words[1]</code>, i.e. <code>&quot;aa&quot;</code>.</li>
	<li>Prefix of length 3 of <code>words[2]</code>, i.e. <code>&quot;bcd&quot;</code>.</li>
	<li>Prefix of length 3 of <code>words[0]</code>, i.e. <code>&quot;abc&quot;</code>.</li>
</ul>
</div>

<p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p>

<div class="example-block">
<p><strong>Input:</strong> <span class="example-io">words = [&quot;abababab&quot;,&quot;ab&quot;], target = &quot;ababaababa&quot;</span></p>

<p><strong>Output:</strong> <span class="example-io">2</span></p>

<p><strong>Explanation:</strong></p>

<p>The target string can be formed by concatenating:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Prefix of length 5 of <code>words[0]</code>, i.e. <code>&quot;ababa&quot;</code>.</li>
	<li>Prefix of length 5 of <code>words[0]</code>, i.e. <code>&quot;ababa&quot;</code>.</li>
</ul>
</div>

<p><strong class="example">Example 3:</strong></p>

<div class="example-block">
<p><strong>Input:</strong> <span class="example-io">words = [&quot;abcdef&quot;], target = &quot;xyz&quot;</span></p>

<p><strong>Output:</strong> <span class="example-io">-1</span></p>
