LPS - Longest Palindromic Substring

no tags 

A palindrome is a string that is the same as its reverse. Example "malayalam", "dad", "appa" etc. In this problem you are asked to find the length of the longest contiguous substring of a given string, which is a palindrome.

Input

The first line consists of a single integer N, the number of characters in the string. 1 <= N <= 100000.

Second line is a string with N characters, where the characters are always lowercase English letters, i.e. 'a' to 'z'.

Output

A single line with an integer representing the length of longest palindromic substring.

Example
Input:
5
ababa

Output:
5

make this for ac
int n;
string s;
cin >> n >> s;
n = s.size(); // this line for acceptance

n is not the same as the length of the string

Input format is not correct. n is not the same as the length of the string.

Dp overall Complexity O(n^2) Tle
Rabin Karp + Binary Search overall Complexity O (n*log(n)) Acc
Mancher overall Complexity O(n) Acc

Solved it with hashing + binary search. Really a nice problem to begin with hashing!

i don't understand why do I keep getting WA on test case 15??

Use Mancher's algo

I used hashing+binary search, got a lot of WA, then replaced string with char [ ], it got AC. Very weird! And also I declared the arrays 5e5 instead of 1e5, and replaced n by strlen(s), as I got comments about the length and n not being the same in all test cases! Hope this helps anyone who face same problem as me!

Those who gave a try to solve with hashes, why are you complaining about WA ? That is probably collision, which is pretty obvious

tle .. with DP->n^2
