Diff lcs

In computing, diffis a file comparison utility that outputs the differences between twofiles. It is typically used to show the changes between a file and a formerversion of the same file. Diff displays the changes made per line for textfiles.

The operation of diffis based on solving the longest common subsequence problemwhich is asfollows: Given two sequences A = a1, a2, …, aM, and B =b1, b2, …, bN, find the length,k, of the longestsequence C = c1, c2, …, cksuch thatC is a subsequence of both A and B. As an example, if

A = d, y, n, a, m,i, c

and

B = p, r, o, g, r,a, m, m, i, n, g

then the longest common subsequence is a, m, iandhas length 3.

From the longestcommon subsequence it's only a small step to get diff-like output:

dyn-progr+m+c-ng+

where “–” means a deletionfrom and “+” means an addition to the first string.

Now you are supposed to simulate the diff operation.

InputSpecification:

Your program must read test cases from a file “input.txt”.The input file consists of several test cases. Each case contains the contentsof two files. The case starts with two non-negative integersN and M (both 50), then followed by N+M lines, each contains a string of nomore than 80 characters. The firstN lines are the contents of the firstfile, while the second M lines are of the second file.

The input is finished by a negative N.

OutputSpecification:

For each test case, you aresupposed to print to a file “output. txt”. If there is no difference found between the two files, print in aline “No differencefound”. If there is nothing incommon between the two files, print in a line “Totally different”. Otherwise, first print in a line the length of thelongest sequence. Then for each line of the first file, print the line number,and output the differences in the diff-like format line by line, as shown bythe sample output.
