For this once you encounter a at 6th position, You can update your max.Now You will have to do following operation.
First clear all the hash.
2. You now can not start from 6th position. You will have to do back and start from 2 position that is b.




Right?
What is the maximum unique string in above test case?
Try printing each sub string formed whenever you hit a duplicate.
It's still O(N) though if we have constant number of characters :)

Have a look again. I traverse the string just once performing updation on variables low, high, max. I assume array operations to be O(1) (which they are). OVerall complexity is O(n).Once I hit a duplicate i change my low, high and A accordingly and move forward.
