Q. Suppose each edit (insert, delete, replace) has a cost of one. Then, the maximum edit distance cost between the two strings is equal to the length of the larger string.
✅ Correct Answer: (A)
true
Explanation: consider the strings “abcd” and “efghi”. the string “efghi” can be converted to “abcd” by deleting “i” and converting “efgh” to “abcd”. the cost of transformation is 5, which is equal to the length of the larger string.
