[LeetCode] Longest Palindromic Substring (Java)

Given a string S, find the longest palindromic substring in S. You may assume that the maximum length of S is 1000, and there exists one unique longest palindromic substring. Analysis This is a very basic dynamic programming problem. We use a 2-D boolean array P to save whether a substring of s is palindromic. We start from substring of length … Read more
