Provided Re: Divide a list of string into substrings by BillKSmith is the right interpretation...

... this smells like a problem from lattice theory plus a cost function to be minimized.

Intuitively I'd try to start to take all pairs from the input and construct their decomposition.

Then you repeat this step with the resulted set of distincts substrings as new input again.

Keep repeating again till there are no new decompositions.

Though you need to mathematically proof that intermediate steps stay optimal and that the desired solution is reached.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
