Question
Consider the following Python code for calculating the length of the LCS: def lcs_length(text1, text2): m = len(text1) n = len(text2) dp = [[0] * (n + 1) for _ in range(m + 1)] for i in range(1, m + 1): for j in range(1, n + 1): if text1[i - 1] == text2[j - 1]: dp[i][j] = 1 + dp[i - 1][j - 1] else: dp[i][j] = max(dp[i - 1][j], dp[i][j - 1]) return dp[m][n] # Assume text1 = "AGGTAB" and text2 = "GXTXAYB" # And the dp table has been partially filled as follows (only relevant cells shown): # "" G X T X A Y B # "" 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 # A 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 # G 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 # G 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 # T 0 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 # A 0 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 # B 0 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 <-- This is dp[6][7] What will be the value of dp[4][4] (LCS of "AGGT" and "GXTX") when text1 = "AGGTAB" and text2 = "GXTXAYB" are processed by the lcs_length function?
