I've written the following code in C# for obtaining the length of longest common subsequence of two texts given by use, but it doesn't work with large strings. Could you please help me. I'm really confused.
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
public int lcs(char[] s1, char[] s2, int s1size, int s2size)
{
if (s1size == 0 || s2size == 0)
{
return 0;
}
else
{
if (s1[s1size - 1] == s2[s2size - 1])
{
return (lcs(s1, s2, s1size - 1, s2size - 1) + 1);
}
else
{
int x = lcs(s1, s2, s1size, s2size - 1);
int y = lcs(s1, s2, s1size - 1, s2size);
if (x > y)
{
return x;
}
else
return y;
}
}
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string st1 = textBox2.Text.Trim(' ');
string st2 = textBox3.Text.Trim(' ');
char[] a = st1.ToCharArray();
char[] b = st2.ToCharArray();
int s1 = a.Length;
int s2 = b.Length;
textBox1.Text = lcs(a, b, s1, s2).ToString();
}
Here you are using the Recursion method. So it leads the program to occur performance problems as you mentioned.
Instead of recursion, use the dynamic programming approach.
Here is the C# Code.
public static void LCS(char[] str1, char[] str2)
{
int[,] l = new int[str1.Length, str2.Length];
int lcs = -1;
string substr = string.Empty;
int end = -1;
for (int i = 0; i < str1.Length; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < str2.Length; j++)
{
if (str1[i] == str2[j])
{
if (i == 0 || j == 0)
{
l[i, j] = 1;
}
else
l[i, j] = l[i - 1, j - 1] + 1;
if (l[i, j] > lcs)
{
lcs = l[i, j];
end = i;
}
}
else
l[i, j] = 0;
}
}
for (int i = end - lcs + 1; i <= end; i++)
{
substr += str1[i];
}
Console.WriteLine("Longest Common SubString Length = {0}, Longest Common Substring = {1}", lcs, substr);
}
Here is a solution how to find the longest common substring in C#:
public static string GetLongestCommonSubstring(params string[] strings)
{
var commonSubstrings = new HashSet<string>(strings[0].GetSubstrings());
foreach (string str in strings.Skip(1))
{
commonSubstrings.IntersectWith(str.GetSubstrings());
if (commonSubstrings.Count == 0)
return string.Empty;
}
return commonSubstrings.OrderByDescending(s => s.Length).DefaultIfEmpty(string.Empty).First();
}
private static IEnumerable<string> GetSubstrings(this string str)
{
for (int c = 0; c < str.Length - 1; c++)
{
for (int cc = 1; c + cc <= str.Length; cc++)
{
yield return str.Substring(c, cc);
}
}
}
I found it here: http://www.snippetsource.net/Snippet/75/longest-common-substring
Just for fun, here is one example using Queue<T>:
string LongestCommonSubstring(params string[] strings)
{
return LongestCommonSubstring(strings[0], new Queue<string>(strings.Skip(1)));
}
string LongestCommonSubstring(string x, Queue<string> strings)
{
if (!strings.TryDequeue(out var y))
{
return x;
}
var output = string.Empty;
for (int i = 0; i < x.Length; i++)
{
for (int j = x.Length - i; j > -1; j--)
{
string common = x.Substring(i, j);
if (y.IndexOf(common) > -1 && common.Length > output.Length) output = common;
}
}
return LongestCommonSubstring(output, strings);
}
It's still using recursion though, but it's a nice example of Queue<T>.
I refactored the C++ code from Ashutosh Singh at https://iq.opengenus.org/longest-common-substring-using-rolling-hash/ to create a rolling hash approach in C# - this will find the substring in O(N * log(N)^2) time and O(N) space

So let me start by saying that I'm a newbie with little to moderate knowledge about C#.
Coming to the topic: I need to make a program that is able to add/subtract very large integers. Initially, used BigInt only to find out it's not allowed. There should be a logical workaround for this? I have an idea which is using "elementary school method" where you add each digit starting from right to left.
I made a string which I split into char array and added each digit from right to left(GetUpperBound-i). But it doesn't seem to work.
My Code:
string s, s2;
char[] c_arr, c_arr2;
int i, erg;
s = "1234";
s2 = "5678";
c_arr = s.ToCharArray();
c_arr2 = s2.ToCharArray();
for (i = 0; i <= c_arr.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
{
erg = c_arr[c_arr.GetUpperBound(0)-i]+c_arr2[c_arr2.GetUpperBound(0)-i];
Console.Write(erg);
}
Console.ReadKey();
There are a few things wrong with your code for the 'elementary school method'. You don't account for carry, you're adding up ascii values rather than actual values between 0-9, and you're outputting the results in the wrong order.
The code below, whilst not very elegant, does produce the correct results:
var s1 = "12345";
var s2 = "5678";
var carry = false;
var result = String.Empty;
if(s1.Length != s2.Length)
{
var diff = Math.Abs(s1.Length - s2.Length);
if(s1.Length < s2.Length)
{
s1 = String.Join("", Enumerable.Repeat("0", diff)) + s1;
}
else
{
s2 = String.Join("", Enumerable.Repeat("0", diff)) + s2;
}
}
for(int i = s1.Length-1;i >= 0; i--)
{
var augend = Convert.ToInt32(s1.Substring(i,1));
var addend = Convert.ToInt32(s2.Substring(i,1));
var sum = augend + addend;
sum += (carry ? 1 : 0);
carry = false;
if(sum > 9)
{
carry = true;
sum -= 10;
}
result = sum.ToString() + result;
}
if(carry)
{
result = "1" + result;
}
Console.WriteLine(result);
The following program can be used to add two large numbers, I have used string builder to store the result. You can add numbers containing digits upto '2,147,483,647'.

I'm a beginner in C#, trying to make a lottery form applicaton.
There are types, first when you have 5 tips ( otos bool ) and 5 tips ( hatos bool ).
And there are many types of how many numbers will be raffled (tiz, harminc, kilencven, negyvenot).
I tried to scan the numbers after the raffle with Array.Equals with this code:
for (int i = 0; i <= 4; i++)
{
for (int y = 0; y <= 4; y++)
{
if (Array.Equals(lottoszamok[i], lottoszamok[y]))
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next (1, ?);
}
}
but at this the number will be scanned with itself too, so it will be always equal.
here is my code by the way:
if (otos == true)
{
for (int i = 0; i <= 5; i++)
{
if (tiz == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 10);
}
else if (harminc == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 30);
}
else if (kilencven == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 90);
}
else if (negyvenot == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 45);
}
else if (egyeni == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, (egyeniertek + 1));
}
}
}
if (hatos == true)
{
for (int i = 0; i <= 6; i++)
{
if (tiz == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 10);
}
else if (harminc == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 30);
}
else if (kilencven == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 90);
}
else if (negyvenot == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, 45);
}
else if (egyeni == true)
{
lottoszamok[i] = r.Next(1, (egyeniertek + 1));
}
}
}
If you're trying to pick numbers from a range 1..n without repetitions, you need to "shuffle" the numbers out:
int[] allPossibleNumbers = Enumerable.Range(1, maxNumber).ToArray();
int[] picked = new int[numberToPick];
for (int i = 0; i < numberToPick; i++)
{
int index = r.Next(i, maxNumber);
picked[i] = allPossibleNumbers[index];
allPossibleNumbers[index] = allPossibleNumbers[i];
}
where numberToPick is 5 if otos or 6 if hatos, and maxNumber depends on tiz, harminc, kilencven, negyvenot, egyeni and egyeniertek.
If your maxNumber is huge and you only want to pick a few numbers, the following doesn't require the whole range to be in memory at once:
Dictionary<int, int> outOfPlace = new Dictionary<int,int>();
int[] picked = new int[numberToPick];
for (int i = 0; i < numberToPick; i++)
{
int shuffleOut = outOfPlace.ContainsKey(i) ? outOfPlace[i] : i;
int index = r.Next(i, maxNumber);
picked[i] = 1 + (outOfPlace.ContainsKey(index) ? outOfPlace[index] : index);
outOfPlace[index] = shuffleOut;
outOfPlace.Remove(i);
}
Try this one!
if (i!=y && Array.Equals(lottoszamok[i], lottoszamok[y]))
I made it this way, if you want you could put swapping like method.
static void SwapInts(int[] array, int position1, int position2)
{
// Swaps elements in an array.
int temp = array[position1]; // Copy the first position's element
array[position1] = array[position2]; // Assign to the second element
array[position2] = temp; // Assign to the first element
}
static void Main()
{
Random rng = new Random();
int n = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
int[] intarray = new int[n];
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
// Initialize array
intarray[i] = i + 1;
}
// Exchange resultArray[i] with random element in resultArray[i..n-1]
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
int positionSwapElement1 = i + rng.Next(0, n - i);
SwapInts(intarray, i, positionSwapElement1);
}
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
Console.Write(intarray[i] + " ");
}
}
}

This is exact coding for insertion sort,
public void Sort(int[] collection)
{
int inner, temp;
for (int i = 1; i < collection.Length; i++)
{
temp = collection[i];
inner = i;
while (inner > 0 && collection[inner - 1] >= temp)
{
collection[i] = collection[inner - 1];
--inner;
}
collection[inner] = temp;
}
Console.WriteLine("Printing Insertion Sorted Items");
Print();
}

I know how to do this in O(n^2). But it seems like there exist a better solution.
I've found this, and there is a link to O(n) answer, but it's written in Haskell and not clear for me.
It would be great to get an answer in c# or similar.
I've found clear explanation of the solution here. Thanks to Justin for this link.
There you can find Python and Java implementations of the algorithm (C++ implementation contains errors).
And here is C# implementation that is just a translation of those algorithms.
public static int LongestPalindrome(string seq)
{
int Longest = 0;
List<int> l = new List<int>();
int i = 0;
int palLen = 0;
int s = 0;
int e = 0;
while (i<seq.Length)
{
if (i > palLen && seq[i-palLen-1] == seq[i])
{
palLen += 2;
i += 1;
continue;
}
l.Add(palLen);
Longest = Math.Max(Longest, palLen);
s = l.Count - 2;
e = s - palLen;
bool found = false;
for (int j = s; j > e; j--)
{
int d = j - e - 1;
if (l[j] == d)
{
palLen = d;
found = true;
break;
}
l.Add(Math.Min(d, l[j]));
}
if (!found)
{
palLen = 1;
i += 1;
}
}
l.Add(palLen);
Longest = Math.Max(Longest, palLen);
return Longest;
}
And this is its java version:
public static int LongestPalindrome(String seq) {
int Longest = 0;
List<Integer> l = new ArrayList<Integer>();
int i = 0;
int palLen = 0;
int s = 0;
int e = 0;
while (i < seq.length()) {
if (i > palLen && seq.charAt(i - palLen - 1) == seq.charAt(i)) {
palLen += 2;
i += 1;
continue;
}
l.add(palLen);
Longest = Math.max(Longest, palLen);
s = l.size() - 2;
e = s - palLen;
boolean found = false;
for (int j = s; j > e; j--) {
int d = j - e - 1;
if (l.get(j) == d) {
palLen = d;
found = true;
break;
}
l.add(Math.min(d, l.get(j)));
}
if (!found) {
palLen = 1;
i += 1;
}
}
l.add(palLen);
Longest = Math.max(Longest, palLen);
return Longest;
}
public static string GetMaxPalindromeString(string testingString)
{
int stringLength = testingString.Length;
int maxPalindromeStringLength = 0;
int maxPalindromeStringStartIndex = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < stringLength; i++)
{
int currentCharIndex = i;
for (int lastCharIndex = stringLength - 1; lastCharIndex > currentCharIndex; lastCharIndex--)
{
if (lastCharIndex - currentCharIndex + 1 < maxPalindromeStringLength)
{
break;
}
bool isPalindrome = true;
if (testingString[currentCharIndex] != testingString[lastCharIndex])
{
continue;
}
else
{
int matchedCharIndexFromEnd = lastCharIndex - 1;
for (int nextCharIndex = currentCharIndex + 1; nextCharIndex < matchedCharIndexFromEnd; nextCharIndex++)
{
if (testingString[nextCharIndex] != testingString[matchedCharIndexFromEnd])
{
isPalindrome = false;
break;
}
matchedCharIndexFromEnd--;
}
}
if (isPalindrome)
{
if (lastCharIndex + 1 - currentCharIndex > maxPalindromeStringLength)
{
maxPalindromeStringStartIndex = currentCharIndex;
maxPalindromeStringLength = lastCharIndex + 1 - currentCharIndex;
}
break;
}
}
}
if(maxPalindromeStringLength>0)
{
return testingString.Substring(maxPalindromeStringStartIndex, maxPalindromeStringLength);
}
return null;

First I search for even length palindromes. Then I search for odd length palindromes. When it finds a palindrome, it determines the length and sets the max length accordingly. The average case complexity for this is linear.
protected static int LongestPalindrome(string str)
{
int i = 0;
int j = 1;
int oldJ = 1;
int intMax = 1;
int intCount = 0;
if (str.Length == 0) return 0;
if (str.Length == 1) return 1;
int[] intDistance = new int[2] {0,1};
for( int k = 0; k < intDistance.Length; k++ ){
j = 1 + intDistance[k];
oldJ = j;
intCount = 0;
i = 0;
while (j < str.Length)
{
if (str[i].Equals(str[j]))
{
oldJ = j;
intCount = 2 + intDistance[k];
i--;
j++;
while (i >= 0 && j < str.Length)
{
if (str[i].Equals(str[j]))
{
intCount += 2;
i--;
j++;
continue;
}
else
{
break;
}
}
intMax = getMax(intMax, intCount);
j = oldJ + 1;
i = j - 1 - intDistance[k];
}
else
{
i++;
j++;
}
}
}
return intMax;
}
protected static int getMax(int a, int b)
{
if (a > b) return a; return b;
}
Recently I wrote following code during interview...
public string FindMaxLengthPalindrome(string s)
{
string maxLengthPalindrome = "";
if (s == null) return s;
int len = s.Length;
for(int i = 0; i < len; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < len - i; j++)
{
bool found = true;
for (int k = j; k < (len - j) / 2; k++)
{
if (s[k] != s[len - (k - j + 1)])
{
found = false;
break;
}
}
if (found)
{
if (len - j > maxLengthPalindrome.Length)
maxLengthPalindrome = s.Substring(j, len - j);
}
if(maxLengthPalindrome.Length >= (len - (i + j)))
break;
}
if (maxLengthPalindrome.Length >= (len - i))
break;
}
return maxLengthPalindrome;
}
I got this question when i took an interview.
I found out when i was back home, unfortunately.
public static string GetMaxPalindromeString(string testingString)
{
int stringLength = testingString.Length;
int maxPalindromeStringLength = 0;
int maxPalindromeStringStartIndex = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < testingString.Length; i++)
{
int currentCharIndex = i;
for (int lastCharIndex = stringLength - 1; lastCharIndex > currentCharIndex; lastCharIndex--)
{
bool isPalindrome = true;
if (testingString[currentCharIndex] != testingString[lastCharIndex])
{
continue;
}
for (int nextCharIndex = currentCharIndex + 1; nextCharIndex < lastCharIndex / 2; nextCharIndex++)
{
if (testingString[nextCharIndex] != testingString[lastCharIndex - 1])
{
isPalindrome = false;
break;
}
}
if (isPalindrome)
{
if (lastCharIndex + 1 - currentCharIndex > maxPalindromeStringLength)
{
maxPalindromeStringStartIndex = currentCharIndex;
maxPalindromeStringLength = lastCharIndex + 1 - currentCharIndex;
}
}
break;
}
}
return testingString.Substring(maxPalindromeStringStartIndex, maxPalindromeStringLength);
}
