Prefix Function and KMP Algorithm for Competitive Programming
The prefix function is a string matching technique used in computer science and string algorithms. It efficiently computes an array that represents the length of the longest proper prefix which is also a suffix for each prefix of a given string. The Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) algorithm utilizes the prefix function to perform pattern matching in linear time, making it an efficient algorithm for searching occurrences of a pattern within a text.
