Learn how to sort uppercase and lowercase characters separately while preserving their original positions, using two efficient strategies:

🔑 Keywords: Case‑specific Sorting, String Algorithms, Bucket Sort, Frequency Array, GfG POTD, C++ Tutorial, Java Tutorial, DSA Strategy, Geekstreak2025, LeetGeek

🧾 Problem Statement
Given a string s of only uppercase and lowercase letters, sort the letters of each case independently such that an uppercase character in position i remains uppercase (though possibly a different letter), and similarly for lowercase.

📊 Example Inputs & Outputs
• Input: s = "GEekS" → Output: "EGekS"
• Input: s = "XWMSPQ" → Output: "MPQSWX"

🧠 What You’ll Learn

Bucket Sort Method: Collect lowercase and uppercase into two lists, sort each, then rebuild in O(n log n) time.

Frequency‑Array Method: Use two fixed‑size (26) count arrays to achieve O(n) time and O(1) extra space.
