(Solved) : Exercise 4 Brute Force Solution Finding Longest Common Subsequence Form Possible Alignment Q44039390 . . .
Exercise 4: A brute force solution to finding a longest common subsequence is to form all possible alignments, and then take the one that has the most matching symbols. This will certainly work, but the algorithm will be slow for the simple reason that the number of alignments grows quickly. How many alignments are there of two strings of length equal to 3? (Hint: it may be easier to instead count the number of alignment paths for these strings.)
