Problem Description
There are two strings A and B with equal length. Both strings are made up of lower case letters. Now you have a powerful string painter. With the help of the painter, you can change a segment of characters of a string to any other character you want. That is, after using the painter, the segment is made up of only one kind of character. Now your task is to change A to B using string painter. What’s the minimum number of operations?
Input
Input contains multiple cases. Each case consists of two lines:
The first line contains string A.
The second line contains string B.
The length of both strings will not be greater than 100.
Output
A single line contains one integer representing the answer.
Sample Input
zzzzzfzzzzz
abcdefedcba
abababababab
cdcdcdcdcdcd
Sample Output

题意:给出两个字符串,有一把刷子可以将任意 i 到 j 都刷成一种字符,问从第一种字符串刷成第二种最少需要多少步。
思路:有两种刷的方式,一种是直接在第一种基础上刷过去,还可以把初始形态当做空白直接刷成第二种字符串,所以我们要两种结合出最少步数。
1,先dp求出空白串刷成第二种,dp[i][j]表示字符串从第 i 个到第 j 个需要最少步数,初始条件:dp[i][j]=dp[i+1][j]+1;
对于k=(i+1...j )如果s2[k]==s2[i],则dp[i][j]=min(dp[i][j],dp[i+1][k]+dp[k+1][j]),,因为刷i的时候可以与k同时刷。
2,ans[i]表示将s1[0...i]刷成s2[0...i]的最小步数,if s1[i]==s2[i] 则ans[i]=ans[i-1];
else ans[i]=min(ans[i],ans[j]+dp[j+1][i]) j<i;
