Problem Statement
If X and Y are two Strings of equal length N, then the difference between them is defined as the number of indices i where the i-th character of X and the i-th character of Y are different. For example, the difference between the words “ant” and “art” is 1.
You are given two Strings, A and B, where the length of A is less than or equal to the length of B. You can apply an arbitrary number of operations to A, where each operation is one of the following:
Choose a character c and add it to the beginning of A. Choose a character c and add it to the end of A.
Apply the operations in such a way that A and B have the same length and the difference between
them is as small as

DifferentStrings minimize String, String int
int minimize(String A, String B)
Constraints
– A and B will each contain between 1 and 50 characters, inclusive.
– A and B will both contain only lowercase letters (‘a’-‘z’).
– The length of A will be less than or equal to the length of B.
Examples

1)
“koder”
“topcoder”
Returns: 1
You can prepend “top” to “koder” and you’ll get “topkoder”. The difference between “topkoder” and “topcoder” is 1.

“xello”
Returns: 1
A and B already have the same length so you cannot add any characters to A. 2)
