EDIST - Edit distance |
You are given two strings, A and B. Answer, what is the smallest number of operations you need to
transform A to B?
Operations are:
- Delete one letter from one of strings
- Insert one letter into one of strings
- Replace one of letters from one of strings with another letter
Input
T - number of test cases
For each test case:
- String A
- String B
Both strings will contain only uppercase characters and they won't be longer than 2000 characters.
There will be 10 test cases in data set.
Output
For each test case, one line, minimum number of operations.
Example
Input: 1 FOOD MONEY Output: 4

A nice problem of dynamic programming. For beginners it is a good one. Just remember to declare all the arrays , strings globally , else you will get a runtime error. Costed me a WA. |

this problem can't be solve in this way : cout<< max(s.size(),t.size) - LCS.size(); S = abba , T = bcba; LCS = bba => LCS.size() = 2 so our output will be 4-3 = "1" it takes us 2_operations : 1. Delete "C" => to string S 2. Insert "A" => to string T Last edit: 2018-02-20 07:33:07 |
