Video Summary :
1. String Building Approach
This method constructs the sequence starting with 'a' and repeatedly appends the next alphabet characters for each existing character until reaching a length of k. It has a linear time and space complexity, as it explicitly builds the string up to the required index.

2. Bit Count (Popcount) Approach
This method leverages the property that the k-th character in the sequence can be deduced by simply counting the number of 1s in the binary representation of k-1 and adding that count to 'a'. This results in a constant time and space solution without constructing the sequence.
