Hello everyone,

I am trying to solve this problem. If I can build the LCP array with O(n) complexity I can easily solve it. But building LCP array requires suffix array. I know the O(n*logn*longn) algorithm. But It will give me TLE in this problem. I need the O(n) algorithm to build suffix array. I searched for it and get a paper which is too complex to understand for me. Can anyone give me a simple and well explained tutorial to build suffix array with O(n) time? It will be great help for me.

Thank you.

You should also try solving with the algorithm. Its constant is very good in comparison with the O(n) one, and it may pass.

No, you don't need suffix array. Try to learn easier techniques

    actually I have learnt the O(n*long*long) suffix array algorithm 3 or 4 days ago and found some problems in spoj which can be solved with suffix array. Those may be solved with other ways. But I am trying to practice suffix array and thats why I want to solve it with this algorithm.

    Which easier techniques can be useful? I need hints.

        I used suffix array with radix sort which time complexity is O(nlogn). If hashing + binary search is used how it will give better complexity?

          Not better complexity, better constant factor.
