Hi, nice problem. It would be more interesting if you create a test condition with varying length and varying level of sub-string similarity. For example, {'1','2','1111','1112','1113','1121','1122','11111'} etc. That would force people to come up with a nice recursive algorithm.

Hi @rifat I am plesure that you like my problem also thanks for your recommendation I think that will be second questions

The problem description needs to specify the solution/output order or accept it in any order: I had to sort it in accordance with similarity-length (if someone is wondering). And I liked your problem, but I had to infer many aspects of it from the test suite. It is not clear by the problem description alone that the similarity-length may be greater than one.
