Count of Reverse Bitonic Substrings in a given String

Given a string S, the task is to count the number of Reverse Bitonic Substrings in the given string.

Reverse bitonic substring: A string in which the ASCII values of the characters of the string follow any of the following patterns:



  • Strictly Increasing
  • Strictly decreasing
  • Decreasing and then increasing

Examples:

Input: S = “bade”
Output: 10
Explanation:  
All possible substrings of length 1, {“b”, “a”, “d”, “e”} are always reverse  bitonic. 
Substrings of length 2 which are reverse bitonic are {“ba”, “ad”, “de”}.
Substrings of length 3 which are reverse bitonic are {“bad “, “ade”}.
Only substring of length 4 which is reverse bitonic is “bade”.
Therefore, the count of reverse bitonic substrings is 10.



Input: S = “abc”
Output: 6

Approach :
The approach is to generate all possible substrings of the given string and follow the steps below for each substring to solve the problem:

Below is the implementation of the above approach :




// C++ Program to implement
// the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to calculate the number
// of reverse bitonic substrings
int CountsubString(char str[], int n)
{
    // Stores the count
    int c = 0;
 
    // All possible lengths of substrings
    for (int len = 1; len <= n; len++) {
 
        // Starting point of a substring
        for (int i = 0; i <= n - len; i++) {
 
            // Ending point of a substring
            int j = i + len - 1;
 
            char temp = str[i], f = 0;
 
            // Condition for reverse
            // bitonic substrings of
            // length 1
            if (j == i) {
 
                c++;
                continue;
            }
 
            int k = i + 1;
 
            // Check for decreasing sequence
            while (temp > str[k] && k <= j) {
 
                temp = str[k];
 
                k++;
            }
 
            // If end of substring
            // is reached
            if (k > j) {
                c++;
                f = 2;
            }
 
            // For increasing sequence
            while (temp < str[k] && k <= j
                && f != 2) {
 
                temp = str[k];
 
                k++;
            }
 
            // If end of substring
            // is reached
            if (k > j && f != 2) {
                c++;
                f = 0;
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Return the number
    // of bitonic substrings
    return c;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    char str[] = "bade";
    cout << CountsubString(str, strlen(str));
 
    return 0;
}
