::I have modified the task to require selection of the longest substring, if more than one is possible, since that's what most of the solutions seem to be assuming. --[[User:TimToady|TimToady]] ([[User talk:TimToady|talk]]) 23:24, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
::: Hi TimToady, I widened the requirement to report longest, shortest or all reps as there could be equal argument for those cases but I can't envisage an algorithm returning naturally some arbitrary other set of rep solutions unless that arbitrariness is 'self-injected'. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 04:17, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
