You are given two strings firstString
and secondString
that are 0-indexed and consist only of lowercase English letters. Count the number of index quadruples (i,j,a,b)
that satisfy the following conditions:
0 <= i <= j < firstString.length
0 <= a <= b < secondString.length
firstString
that starts at the ith
character and ends at the jth
character (inclusive) is equal to the substring of secondString
that starts at the ath
character and ends at the bth
character (inclusive).j - a
is the minimum possible value among all quadruples that satisfy the previous conditions.Return the number of such quadruples.
Example 1:
Input: firstString = "abcd", secondString = "bccda" Output: 1 Explanation: The quadruple (0,0,4,4) is the only one that satisfies all the conditions and minimizes j - a.
Example 2:
Input: firstString = "ab", secondString = "cd" Output: 0 Explanation: There are no quadruples satisfying all the conditions.
Constraints:
1 <= firstString.length, secondString.length <= 2 * 105
