Count pairs of non-overlapping palindromic sub-strings of the given string in C++
We are given an input as a string, the task is to find out the count of pairs of non-overlapping palindromic sub-strings of the given input string. The value of arr[i][j] is true if the substring is a palindrome, otherwise false. We will take combination out of the string and check if the pairs fulfil the criteria.
Let us understand with examples.
Input: ABC
Output: Count pairs of non-overlapping palindromic sub-strings is 3
Explanation: The possible pairs are (A) (B) (C) ,(A) (BC),(AB) (C),(ABC)
Input: ABCD
Output: Count pairs of non-overlapping palindromic sub-strings is 8
Explanation: The possible pairs are (A)(B)(C)(D),(A)(B)(CD),(A)(BC)(D),(A)(BCD),(AB)(C)(D),(AB)(CD),
(ABC)(D),(ABCD)
Approach used in the below program is as follows
- A string is taken as input and passed in the function pair_count(text) for further processing.
- Initially a boolean 2D array of size 100 arr[ ][ ] is created and maintained to be filled in a bottom up approach and the input string(text) is converted to a character array.
- The array is then calculated by checking the value arr[i+1][j-1],if the value is true and str[i] is the same as str[j], then we make arr[i][j] true. Otherwise, the value of arr[i][j] is made false.
- After that start[ ] and end[ ] are initialised and start[i] stores the palindrome count of the number of palindromes to the left of the index(including i) and end[i] stores the palindrome count of the number of elements to the right of the index(including i)
- A loop is then iterated from 0 to str.length() - 1 and inside the loop the result is calculated by summing up the result with the product of start[i] * end[i + 1].
Example
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
class tutorialPoint {
static int SIZE = 100;
static int pair_count(String str) {
boolean arr[][] = new boolean[SIZE][SIZE];
char[] ch = str.toCharArray();
for (int i = 0; i < ch.length; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < ch.length; j++) {
arr[i][j] = false;
}
}
for (int j = 1; j <= ch.length; j++) {
for (int i = 0; i <= ch.length - j; i++) {
if (j <= 2) {
if (ch[i] == ch[i + j - 1]) {
arr[i][i + j - 1] = true;
}
} else if (ch[i] == ch[i + j - 1]) {
arr[i][i + j - 1] = arr[i + 1][i + j - 2];
}
}
}
int start[] = new int[str.length()];
int end[] = new int[str.length()];
start[0] = 1;
for (int i = 1; i < str.length(); i++) {
for (int j = 0; j <= i; j++) {
if (arr[j][i] == true) {
start[i]++;
}
}
}
end[str.length() - 1] = 1;
for (int i = str.length() - 2; i >= 0; i--) {
end[i] = end[i + 1];
for (int j = str.length() - 1; j >= i; j--) {
if (arr[i][j] == true) {
end[i]++;
}
}
}
int result = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < str.length() - 1; i++) {
result = result + start[i] * end[i + 1];
}
return result;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); //ABCD
String text = scan.next();
System.out.println("Count pairs of non-overlapping palindromic sub-strings is\t" + pair_count(text));
}
}If we run the above code it will generate the following output −
Output
Count pairs of non-overlapping palindromic sub-strings is 8
