Article:Manacher's Algorithm - Finding all sub-palindromes in O(N)

Problem:

Below line ->

p[i] = max(0, min(r - i, p[l + (r - i)]));

in manacher_odd function, is max(0, ..) check really required?

As I tried some examples on paper, it seemed every time, the least value of p[i] = min(r - i, p[l + (r - i)]) is 0, so, can we write directly,

p[i] = min(r - i, p[l + (r - i)]);
