You are given a 0-indexed string text
and another 0-indexed string pattern
of length 2
, both of which consist of only lowercase English letters.
You can add either pattern[0]
or pattern[1]
anywhere in text
exactly once. Note that the character can be added even at the beginning or at the end of text
.
Return the maximum number of times pattern
can occur as a subsequence of the modified text
.
A subsequence is a string that can be derived from another string by deleting some or no characters without changing the order of the remaining characters.
\n\n\n
Example 1:
\n\n\nInput: text = "abdcdbc", pattern = "ac"\nOutput: 4\nExplanation:\nIf we add pattern[0] = 'a' in between text[1] and text[2], we get "abadcdbc". Now, the number of times "ac" occurs as a subsequence is 4.\nSome other strings which have 4 subsequences "ac" after adding a character to text are "aabdcdbc" and "abdacdbc".\nHowever, strings such as "abdcadbc", "abdccdbc", and "abdcdbcc", although obtainable, have only 3 subsequences "ac" and are thus suboptimal.\nIt can be shown that it is not possible to get more than 4 subsequences "ac" by adding only one character.\n\n\n
Example 2:
\n\n\nInput: text = "aabb", pattern = "ab"\nOutput: 6\nExplanation:\nSome of the strings which can be obtained from text and have 6 subsequences "ab" are "aaabb", "aaabb", and "aabbb".\n\n\n

Constraints:
\n\n1 <= text.length <= 105
pattern.length == 2
