shortest_subsequence_1087.cpp (1853B)


      1 #include <algorithm>
      2 #include <array>
      3 #include <iostream>
      4 #include <ranges>
      5 #include <string>

      8 // Idea: keep an array a[n][4] where a[i][x] denotes the shortest
      9 // non-subsequence of s[:i] that ends with x. The recursive relation
     10 // is the following:
     11 // - For s[i] != x, a[i][x] = a[i-1][x] (easy to see).
     12 // - For s[i] == x, we have a[i][x] = 1+min(a[i-1][y] over y): if
     13 //   the shortest non-subsequence ending with x becomes a subsequence,
     14 //   then this is realized by adding x to the any of the current 4
     15 //   non-subsequences (including the one already ending in x); otherwise,
     16 //   the subsequence obtained by removing the x is still a valid
     17 //   non-subsequence, and it must be one of the other 3, so we get back
     18 //   the same (it can't end again in x, otherwise it would be a shorter
     19 //   non-subsequence ending in x).
     20 // Then we have to backtrack to find an actual solution.
