Illustrate the dynamic programming solution for Longest Common Subsequence’s (LCS) problem. code example
Example 1: longest common subsequence
class Solution:
def longestCommonSubsequence(self, text1: str, text2: str) -> int:
"""
text1: horizontally
text2: vertically
"""
dp = [[0 for _ in range(len(text1)+1)] for _ in range(len(text2)+1)]

dp[row][col] = 1+ dp[row-1][col-1]
else:
dp[row][col] = max(dp[row-1][col], dp[row][col-1])
return dp[len(text2)][len(text1)]
Example 2: longest common subsequence
int maxSubsequenceSubstring(char x[], char y[],
int n, int m)

// If alphabet of string X and Y are
// equal make dp[i][j] = 1 + dp[i-1][j-1]
if (x[j - 1] == y[i - 1])
dp[i][j] = 1 + dp[i - 1][j - 1];
// Else copy the previous value in the
// row i.e dp[i-1][j-1]
else

}
// Finding the maximum length.
int ans = 0;
