Occurrence counts of prefixes that are also suffixes
Problem
Given a string s, consider the set of all prefixes of s that are simultaneously suffixes of s (its borders, including s itself). For each such prefix, report how many times it occurs as a substring of s. Return the prefixes (by length) together with their occurrence counts.
Input / Output
- Input: string
s. - Output: for each prefix that is also a suffix (in increasing length order), its length and the number of occurrences of that prefix as a substring of
s.
Constraints
1 <= |s| <= 10^5- Small alphabet (e.g. lowercase/uppercase letters).
Example
s = "ABACABA"→ borders of lengths1 ("A"),3 ("ABA"),7 ("ABACABA"); occurrence counts4,2,1.
