Longest Common Subsequence
Given two strings word1 and word2, return the length of their longest common subsequence.
A subsequence of a string is a new string generated from the original string with some characters(can be none) deleted without changing the relative order of the remaining characters. (eg, "ace" is a subsequence of "abcde" while "aec" is not). A common subsequence of two strings is a subsequence that is common to both strings.
If there is no common subsequence, return 0.
Example 1:
Input:
word1 = "abcde"
word2 = "ace"Output: 3
Explanation:
The longest common subsequence is ace and its length is 3.
Example 2:
Input:
word1 = "almost"
word2 = "algomonster"Output: 6
Explanation:
The longest common subsequence is almost and its length is 6.
Example 3:
Input:
word1 = "abc"
word2 = "def"Output: 0
Explanation:
There is no such common subsequence, so the result is 0.
