Given two strings, find the longest comment subsequence (LCS).

Your code should return the length of LCS.

Example
For "ABCD" and "EDCA", the LCS is "A" (or D or C), return 1

For "ABCD" and "EACB", the LCS is "AC", return 2

Clarification
What's the definition of Longest Common Subsequence?

*(Note that a subsequence is different from a substring, for the terms of the former need not be consecutive terms of the original sequence.) It is a classic computer science problem, the basis of file comparison programs such as diff, and has applications in bioinformatics.

1. D[i][j] 定义为s1, s2的前i,j个字符串的最长common subsequence.

2. D[i][j] 当char i == char j, 可以有三种选择,D[i - 1][j - 1] + 1,D[i ][j - 1], D[i - 1][j] ,取最大的

    当char i != char j, D[i ][j - 1], D[i - 1][j] 里取一个大的(因为最后一个不相同,所以有可能s1的最后一个字符会出现在s2的前部分里,反之亦然。
