1143. Longest Common Subsequence

Medium

Given two strings text1 and text2, return the length of their longest common subsequence. If there is no common subsequence, return 0.

A subsequence of a string is a new string generated from the original string with some characters (can be none) deleted without changing the relative order of the remaining characters.

A common subsequence of two strings is a subsequence that is common to both strings.

Example 1:

Input: text1 = “abcde”, text2 = “ace”

Output: 3

Explanation: The longest common subsequence is “ace” and its length is 3.

Example 2:

Input: text1 = “abc”, text2 = “abc”

Output: 3

Explanation: The longest common subsequence is “abc” and its length is 3.

Example 3:

Input: text1 = “abc”, text2 = “def”

Output: 0

Explanation: There is no such common subsequence, so the result is 0.

Solution

object Solution {
    def longestCommonSubsequence(text1: String, text2: String): Int = {
        val n = text1.length
        val m = text2.length
        val dp = Array.ofDim[Int](n + 1, m + 1)

        for (i <- 1 to n) {
            for (j <- 1 to m) {
                if (text1(i - 1) == text2(j - 1)) {
                    dp(i)(j) = dp(i - 1)(j - 1) + 1
                } else {
                    dp(i)(j) = Math.max(dp(i - 1)(j), dp(i)(j - 1))
                }
            }
        }

        dp(n)(m)
    }
