[Leetcode] Longest Palindromic Substring

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.

最长回文，对于每一个字符从中间向两边找，注意分奇数与偶数两种情况。总的时间复杂度为O(n^2)。另外Manacher算法复杂度为O(n)，Manacher算法好复杂的样子，智商捉急，得好好消化一下。先贴个简单的吧。

class Solution {
public:
    int getLPS(const string &s, int idx1, int idx2) {
        while (idx1 >= 0 && idx2 < s.length() && s[idx1] == s[idx2]) {
            --idx1;
            ++idx2;
        }
        return idx2 - idx1 - 1;
    }
    
    string longestPalindrome(string s) {
        if (s.length() < 2) return s;
        int lps = -1, lps1, lps2, pos;
        for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); ++i) {
            lps1 = getLPS(s, i, i);
            lps2 = getLPS(s, i, i + 1);
            if (lps1 > lps || lps2 > lps) {
                pos = i;
                lps = max(lps1, lps2);
            }
        }
        if (lps & 0x1) return s.substr(pos-(lps-1)/2, lps);
        else return s.substr(pos-(lps-2)/2, lps);
    }
};
