Classical Dynamic Programming algorithm for Longest Common Subsequence
for ( int i = 0 ; i <= n ; i ++ ) { for ( int j = 0 ; j <= n ; j ++ ) { if ( i == 0 j == 0 ) L [ i ] [ j ] = 0 ; else if ( seq [ i - 1 ] == sortedseq [ j - 1 ] ) L [ i ] [ j ] = L [ i - 1 ] [ j - 1 ] + 1 ; else L [ i ] [ j ] = max ( L [ i - 1 ] [ j ] , L [ i ] [ j - 1 ] ) ; } }
