Find the Largest Mirror Section
Find the Largest Mirror Section
You are given an array of integers. Your task is to determine the length of the largest mirror section in this array.
A mirror section in an array is a contiguous subsequence that appears in reverse order somewhere else in the array. Formally, if the array is denoted as \(a_0, a_1, \ldots, a_{n-1}\), then a mirror section of length \(L\) exists if there are indices \(i\) and \(j\) (with appropriate bounds) such that:
[ a_i = a_{j},\quad a_{i+1} = a_{j-1},\quad \ldots,\quad a_{i+L-1} = a_{j-L+1} ]
Your program should read the input from stdin
and output the result to stdout
.
Examples:
- For the input array
[1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 3, 2, 1]
, the largest mirror section has length3
. - For the input array
[1, 4, 5, 3, 5, 4, 1]
, the largest mirror section has length7
.
inputFormat
The first line of input contains a single integer \(n\) representing the number of elements in the array. The second line contains \(n\) space-separated integers.
For example:
8 1 2 3 8 9 3 2 1
outputFormat
Output a single integer which is the length of the largest mirror section found in the array.
