Name:

[Longest Common Prefix]

About:

This program finds the Longest Common Prefix (LCP) among an array of strings. It starts by assuming the first string as the prefix and iteratively compares it with each subsequent string, updating the prefix to the common portion. If no common prefix exists, it stops early. The program is useful for applications like string analysis, autocomplete systems, and pattern matching.

Input:

Enter the number of strings: 3
Enter the strings:
String 1: flower
String 2: flow
String 3: flight

Output:

The longest common prefix is: fl
