Longest subsequence possible that starts and ends with 1 and filled with 0 in the middle

Given a binary string s, the task is to find the length of the longest subsequence that can be divided into three substrings such that the first and third substrings are either empty or filled with 1 and the substring at the middle is either empty or filled with 0.

Examples:

Input: s = “1001”
Output: 4
Explanation:
The entire string can be divided into the desired three parts: “1”, “00”, “1”.
Input: s = “010”
Output: 2
Explanation:
The subsequences “00”, “01” and “10” can be split into three desired parts {“”, “00”, “”}, {“”, “0”, “1”} and {“1”, “0”, “”}

Approach:
To solve the problem, we need to follow the steps given below:

Firstly, pre-compute and store in prefix arrays, the occurrences of ‘1’ and ‘0’ respectively.
Initialize two integers i and j, where i will be the point of partition between the first and second string and j will be the point of partition between the second and third strings.
Iterate over all possible values of i & j (0 <= i < j <=n) and find the maximum possible length of the subsequence possible which satisfies the given condition.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ Program to find the
// longest subsequence possible
// that starts and ends with 1
// and filled with 0 in the middle
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
int longestSubseq(string s, int length)
{
    // Prefix array to store the
    // occurrences of '1' and '0'
    int ones[length + 1], zeroes[length + 1];
 
    // Initialise prefix arrays with 0
    memset(ones, 0, sizeof(ones));
    memset(zeroes, 0, sizeof(zeroes));
 
    // Iterate over the length of the string
    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
 
        // If current character is '1'
        if (s[i] == '1') {
            ones[i + 1] = ones[i] + 1;
            zeroes[i + 1] = zeroes[i];
        }
 
        // If current character is '0'
        else {
            zeroes[i + 1] = zeroes[i] + 1;
            ones[i + 1] = ones[i];
        }
    }
 
    int answer = INT_MIN;
    int x = 0;
 
    for (int i = 0; i <= length; i++) {
        for (int j = i; j <= length; j++) {
            // Add '1' available for
            // the first string
            x += ones[i];
 
            // Add '0' available for
            // the second string
            x += (zeroes[j] - zeroes[i]);
 
            // Add '1' available for
            // the third string
            x += (ones[length] - ones[j]);
 
            // Update answer
            answer = max(answer, x);
 
            x = 0;
        }
    }
 
    // Print the final result
    cout << answer << endl;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
 
    string s = "10010010111100101";
 
    int length = s.length();
 
    longestSubseq(s, length);
 
    return 0;
}
