Given two strings, find the longest common substring.
Return the length of it.
Example
Given A = "ABCD"
, B = "CBCE"
, return 2
.
public class Solution {
/**
* @param A, B: Two string.
* @return: the length of the longest common substring.
*/
public int longestCommonSubstring(String A, String B) {
int maxlen = 0;
int m = A.length();
int n = B.length();
for (int i = 0; i < m; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < m; j++) {
int len = 0;
while (i + len < m && j + len < n && A.charAt(i + len) == B.charAt(j + len)) {
len++;
maxlen = Math.max(maxlen, len);
}
}
}
return maxlen;
