Longest Palindromic Substring Problem Statement
You are provided with a string STR
of length N. The task is to find the longest palindromic substring within STR
. If there are several palindromic substrings of the maximum length, return the one that starts with the smallest index.
Input:
The first line of the input contains a single integer T, the number of test cases.
Each of the following T lines contains a single string STR
.
Output:
For each test case, output the longest palindromic substring. If multiple substrings qualify, return the one that appears first.
Example:
Input:
2
ababc
cbbd
Output:
aba
bb
Explanation:
For first test case, "aba"
and "bab"
are both palindromes. "aba"
is chosen because it starts earlier.
Constraints:
1 ≤ T ≤ 5
0 ≤ N ≤ 100
Note:
A substring is defined as a contiguous segment of a string.
