Question

Z-algorithm Biological sequences are often circular as in many bacterial genomes. Scientists simply cut the genome sequence at either an arbitrary point or at a origin of replication. Genome assemblers (a program that can stitch short sequences into a large genome sequence) also do this by breaking the circular sequence at a random location and report it as a linear sequence. If an identical circular sequence is broken at a different positions, they can often result in different linear sequences. Given two linear sequences X and Y, explain how we can use Z-algorithm to check if X and Y come from an identical circular sequence.
