Write a function to find the longest common prefix string amongst an array of strings.

Java:

public class Solution{
        public String longestPreString(String[] s):
                String pre=s[0];
                int i=1;
                while(i<s.length){
                        while(s[i].indexOf(pre)!=0){
                                pre=pre.subString(0,pre.length()-1);
                        }
                        i++;
                }
                return pre;
}

Python:

class Solution:
        def longestPreString(self,s):
                pre=s[0]
                i=1
                while i<len(s):
                        while s[i].index(pre)!=0:
                                pre=pre[0:len(s)-1]
                        i+=1
                return pre
