Good, thanks for considering this 👍

Hey @icoder211 , what I meant by add relevant info is that add comment in code explaining problem and document your code so anyone from watching your code, can understand why you did what you did. |

Removed Arrays.fill() because new keyword initializes a 2D array of int's with 0s, as pointed out by @prashantdoshi28
The longest common substring problem:
Given two strings, "S" and "T", find the length of the longest common substring between the two strings
A "substring" of a string "S" is that string, with any number of characters (0 or more) deleted from the front of S, and any number of characters (0 or more) deleted from the end of S.
A common substring of two strings S and T is any substring s of S and substring t of T, such that s = t.
Output the length longest such common substring.
Sample test case:
S = "abbaf"
T = "abcdef"
Sample output:
2
Explanation:
The common substrings are:
"ab"
"a"
"b"
"f"
The longest among them is "ab", of length 2.
