1940. Longest Common Subsequence Between Sorted Arrays πŸ”’

Description

Given an array of integer arrays arrays where each arrays[i] is sorted in strictly increasing order, return an integer array representing the longest common subsequence among all the arrays.

A subsequence is a sequence that can be derived from another sequence by deleting some elements (possibly none) without changing the order of the remaining elements.

 

Example 1:

Input: arrays = [[1,3,4],
                 [1,4,7,9]]
Output: [1,4]
Explanation: The longest common subsequence in the two arrays is [1,4].

Example 2:

Input: arrays = [[2,3,6,8],
                 [1,2,3,5,6,7,10],
                 [2,3,4,6,9]]
Output: [2,3,6]
Explanation: The longest common subsequence in all three arrays is [2,3,6].

Example 3:

Input: arrays = [[1,2,3,4,5],
                 [6,7,8]]
Output: []
Explanation: There is no common subsequence between the two arrays.

 

Constraints:

  • 2 <= arrays.length <= 100
  • 1 <= arrays[i].length <= 100
  • 1 <= arrays[i][j] <= 100
  • arrays[i] is sorted in strictly increasing order.
