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.

O(n*n)。对于每一个字符，以之作为中间元素往左右寻找。注意处理奇偶两种模式：
1. aba
2. abba

10             String oddPattern = getOddPalindromeSubstring(i, s);
