    The file starts with a header containing a magic number (as a readable string) and the version of the format, for example %PDF-1.7. The format is a subset of a COS ("Carousel" Object Structure) format. [23] A COS tree file consists primarily of objects, of which there are nine types: [16] Boolean values, representing true or false; Real numbers ...

  4. Search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_algorithm

    Specific applications of search algorithms include: Problems in combinatorial optimization, such as: . The vehicle routing problem, a form of shortest path problem; The knapsack problem: Given a set of items, each with a weight and a value, determine the number of each item to include in a collection so that the total weight is less than or equal to a given limit and the total value is as ...

  5. Linear search problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_search_problem

    This problem is usually called the linear search problem and a search plan is called a trajectory. The linear search problem for a general probability distribution is unsolved. [ 5 ] However, there exists a dynamic programming algorithm that produces a solution for any discrete distribution [ 6 ] and also an approximate solution, for any ...

    The following code example for the Java programming language is a simple implementation of a linear search. public int linearSearch ( int a [] , int valueToFind ) { //a[] is an array of integers to search. //valueToFind is the number that will be found.

  7. Generator matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_matrix

    A generator matrix for a linear [,,]-code has format , where n is the length of a codeword, k is the number of information bits (the dimension of C as a vector subspace), d is the minimum distance of the code, and q is size of the finite field, that is, the number of symbols in the alphabet (thus, q = 2 indicates a binary code, etc.).

  8. Linear search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_search

    In computer science, linear search or sequential search is a method for finding an element within a list. It sequentially checks each element of the list until a match is found or the whole list has been searched. [1] A linear search runs in linear time in the worst case, and makes at most n comparisons, where n is the length of

  9. String-searching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String-searching_algorithm

    A simple and inefficient way to see where one string occurs inside another is to check at each index, one by one. First, we see if there is a copy of the needle starting at the first character of the haystack; if not, we look to see if there's a copy of the needle starting at the second character of the haystack, and so forth.
