/***************************************************************************************************** 
 *
 * Given a string S and a string T, count the number of distinct subsequences of S which equals T.
 * 
 * A subsequence of a string is a new string which is formed from the original string by deleting some 
 * (can be none) of the characters without disturbing the relative positions of the remaining 
 * characters. (ie, "ACE" is a subsequence of "ABCDE" while "AEC" is not).
 * 
 * Example 1:
 * 
 * Input: S = "rabbbit", T = "rabbit"
 * Output: 3
 * Explanation:
 * 
 * As shown below, there are 3 ways you can generate "rabbit" from S.
 * (The caret symbol ^ means the chosen letters)
 * 
 * rabbbit
 * ^^^^ ^^
 * rabbbit
 * ^^ ^^^^
 * rabbbit
 * ^^^ ^^^
 * 
 * Example 2:
 * 
 * Input: S = "babgbag", T = "bag"
 * Output: 5
 * Explanation:
 * 
 * As shown below, there are 5 ways you can generate "bag" from S.
 * (The caret symbol ^ means the chosen letters)
 * 
 * babgbag
 * ^^ ^
 * babgbag

//
//  The idea as below:
//
//     Considering m[i][j] means the distance from T[i] to S[j], and add the empty "" case, then,
//
//     A) Initialization for empty case:  m[0][j] = 1;
//
//     B) Calculation 
//
//        a) Target-len > Source-len cannot found any substring
//           i > j : m[i][j] = 0;   
//
//        b) if not equal, take the value of T[i] => S[j-1] (e.g. ["ra" => "rabb"] =["ra" => "rab"] )
//           S[j] != T[i] :  m[i][j] = m[i][j-1]
//
//        c) if equal. (e.g.  ["rab" => "rabb"] = ["rab" =>"rab"] + ["ra" => "rab"] ) 
//           S[j] == T[i] :  m[i][j] = m[i][j-1] + m[i-1][j-1]
//
//  1) Initialize a table as below   
//       ""  r  a  b  b  b  i  t
//    ""  1  1  1  1  1  1  1  1
//    r     
//    b   
//    t  
//
//  2) Calculation
//       ""  r  a  b  b  b  i  t
//    ""  1  1  1  1  1  1  1  1
//    r   0  1  1  1  1  1  1  1 
//    b   0  0  0  1  2  3  3  3
//    t   0  0  0  0  0  0  0  3

//      posMap = { [a]={0}, [b]={2,1} } <- the map of T's every char.
//      numOfSubSeq = {1, 0, 0, 0 }
//
//      S[0] is 'a', pos is 0,  numOfSubSeq = {1, 0+1, 0, 0};
//
//      S[1] is 'b', pos is 2,  numOfSubSeq = {1, 1, 0, 0+0};
//                   pos is 1,  numOfSubSeq = {1, 1, 0+1, 0};
//
//      S[2] is 'b', pos is 2,  numOfSubSeq = {1, 1, 1, 0+1};
//                   pos is 1,  numOfSubSeq = {1, 1, 1+1, 1};
//
//      S[3] is 'b', pos is 2,  numOfSubSeq = {1, 1, 2, 2+1};
//                   pos is 1,  numOfSubSeq = {1, 1, 1+2, 3};
//
//      S[4] is 'c', not found, numOfSubSeq = {1, 1, 3, 3};
//
