Printing Longest Common Subsequence | GeeksforGeeks

Given two sequences, print the longest subsequence present in both of them.
Following is detailed algorithm to print the LCS. It uses the same 2D table L[][].
1) Construct L[m+1][n+1] using the steps discussed in previous post.
2) The value L[m][n] contains length of LCS. Create a character array lcs[] of length equal to the length of lcs plus 1 (one extra to store \0).
2) Traverse the 2D array starting from L[m][n]. Do following for every cell L[i][j]
…..a) If characters (in X and Y) corresponding to L[i][j] are same (Or X[i-1] == Y[j-1]), then include this character as part of LCS.
…..b) Else compare values of L[i-1][j] and L[i][j-1] and go in direction of greater value.
void lcs( char *X, char *Y, int m, int n )
{
   int L[m+1][n+1];
   /* Following steps build L[m+1][n+1] in bottom up fashion. Note
      that L[i][j] contains length of LCS of X[0..i-1] and Y[0..j-1] */
   for (int i=0; i<=m; i++)
   {
     for (int j=0; j<=n; j++)
     {
       if (i == 0 || j == 0)
         L[i][j] = 0;
       else if (X[i-1] == Y[j-1])
         L[i][j] = L[i-1][j-1] + 1;
       else
         L[i][j] = max(L[i-1][j], L[i][j-1]);
     }
   }
   // Following code is used to print LCS
   int index = L[m][n];
   // Create a character array to store the lcs string
   char lcs[index+1];
   lcs[index] = '\0'; // Set the terminating character
   // Start from the right-most-bottom-most corner and
   // one by one store characters in lcs[]
   int i = m, j = n;
   while (i > 0 && j > 0)
   {
      // If current character in X[] and Y are same, then
      // current character is part of LCS
      if (X[i-1] == Y[j-1])
      {
          lcs[index-1] = X[i-1]; // Put current character in result
          i--; j--; index--;     // reduce values of i, j and index
      }
      // If not same, then find the larger of two and
      // go in the direction of larger value
      else if (L[i-1][j] > L[i][j-1])
         i--;
      else
         j--;
   }
   // Print the lcs
   cout << "LCS of " << X << " and " << Y << " is " << lcs;
}
