1044. Longest Duplicate Substring 👍

Problem

Given a string s, consider all duplicated substrings: (contiguous) substrings of s that occur 2 or more times. The occurrences may overlap.

Return any duplicated substring that has the longest possible length. If s does not have a duplicated substring, the answer is "".

 

Example 1:

Input: s = "banana"
Output: "ana"

Example 2:

Input: s = "abcd"
Output: ""

 

Constraints:

  • 2 <= s.length <= 3 * 104
  • s consists of lowercase English letters.
