Minimum Characters to be Added at Front to make String Palindrome | Problem of the Day: 02/10/22

Significance of adding $ ->--->$ helps us because lps function calculates longest proper prefix which means if complete string is a palindrome the lps.back() will always be one less than length of the string but adding a $ fixes that
