#K3331. Minimum Edit Distance
Minimum Edit Distance
Minimum Edit Distance
Given two strings \(A\) and \(B\), your task is to compute the minimum number of operations required to convert \(A\) into \(B\) using the following three operations:
- Insertion
- Deletion
- Replacement
Each operation has a cost of 1. The optimal solution can be computed using dynamic programming. The recurrence relation is given by:
\(dp[i][j] = \min\begin{cases} dp[i-1][j] + 1, \\ dp[i][j-1] + 1, \\ dp[i-1][j-1] + \begin{cases}0 & \text{if } A[i-1]=B[j-1] \\1 & \text{otherwise}\end{cases} \end{cases}\)
Your program should read multiple test cases from standard input and output the answer for each case on a new line.
inputFormat
The input is given from standard input as follows:
- The first line contains an integer \(T\), the number of test cases.
- Each of the next \(T\) lines contains two space-separated strings \(A\) and \(B\).
outputFormat
For each test case, output a single integer on a new line representing the minimum number of edit operations required to convert string \(A\) into string \(B\).
