2048: [USACO 2024 US Open Contest Silver] Problem 3. The 'Winning' Gene
题目描述
After years of hosting games and watching Bessie get first place over and over, Farmer John has realized that this can't be accidental. Instead, he concludes that Bessie must have winning coded into her DNA so he sets out to find this "winning" gene.
He devises a process to identify possible candidates for this "winning" gene. He takes Bessie's genome, which is a string of length where . He picks some pair where representing that the "winning" gene candidates will have length and will be found within a larger length substring. To identify the gene, he takes all length substrings from which we will call a -mer. For a given -mer, he takes all length substrings, identifies the lexicographically minimal substring as a winning gene candidate (choosing the leftmost such substring if there is a tie), and then writes down the -indexed position where that substring starts in to a set .
Since he hasn't picked and yet, he wants to know how many candidates there will be for every pair of .
For each in , help him determine the number of pairs with.

In this test case, the third line of the output is 5 because we see that there are exactly 5 pairs of and that allow for three "winning" gene candidates. These candidates are (where is -indexed): [expand to see graph]
(4,2) -> P = [0,3,4] (5,3) -> P = [0,3,4] (6,4) -> P = [0,3,4] (6,5) -> P = [0,1,3] (6,6) -> P = [0,1,2]To see how (4,2) leads to these results, we take all
-mers [expand to see graph]
AGTC GTCA TCAA CAAC AACGFor each -mer, we identify the lexicographically minimal length 2 substring [expand to see graph]
AGTC -> AG GTCA -> CA TCAA -> AA CAAC -> AA AACG -> AAWe take the positions of all these substrings in the original string and add them to a set to get .
On the other hand, if we focus on the pair , we see that this only leads to total "winning" gene candidates. If we take all -mers and identify the lexicographically minimum length substring (using A and A' and A* to distinguish the different As), we get [expand to see graph]
AGTC -> A GTCA' -> A' TCA'A* -> A' CA'A*C -> A' A'A*CG -> A'While both A' and A* are lexicographically minimal in the last 3 cases, the leftmost substring takes precedence so A' is counted as the only candidate in all of these cases. This means that .
