5. Longest Palindromic Substring
Medium
Given a string s, return the longest palindromic substring in s.
Example 1:
Input: s = “babad”
Output: “bab” Note: “aba” is also a valid answer.
Example 2:
Input: s = “cbbd”
Output: “bb”
Example 3:
Input: s = “a”
Output: “a”
Example 4:
Input: s = “ac”
Output: “a”
Constraints:
1 <= s.length <= 1000sconsist of only digits and English letters.
