Since the lines are infinite, we need to take the small portion of lines as one sample, like wise we will take 10 samples and in each sample we need to calculate the prefix of words and then we will consider the prefix maximum times encountered in 10 samples. Then we can conclude this.

it's like "aditya and aditi ......" so "adit" is prefix for 2 words and having length 4. So we need to find out the max length of prefix among all the words in the complete string.
