  2. Edit distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edit_distance

    Given two strings a and b on an alphabet Σ (e.g. the set of ASCII characters, the set of bytes [0..255], etc.), the edit distance d(a, b) is the minimum-weight series of edit operations that transforms a into b. One of the simplest sets of edit operations is that defined by Levenshtein in 1966: [2] Insertion of a single symbol.

  3. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

    find_character(string,char) returns integer Description Returns the position of the start of the first occurrence of the character char in string. If the character is not found most of these routines return an invalid index value – -1 where indexes are 0-based, 0 where they are 1-based – or some value to be interpreted as Boolean FALSE.

  4. Levenshtein distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance

    In information theory, linguistics, and computer science, the Levenshtein distance is a string metric for measuring the difference between two sequences. The Levenshtein distance between two words is the minimum number of single-character edits (insertions, deletions or substitutions) required to change one word into the other.

  5. Regular expression - Wikipedia

    However, there can be many ways to write a regular expression for the same set of strings: for example, (Hän|Han|Haen)del also specifies the same set of three strings in this example. Most formalisms provide the following operations to construct regular expressions. Boolean "or" A vertical bar separates alternatives.

  6. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    Some matchers use a single global unweighted cost, that is, the total number of primitive operations necessary to convert the match to the pattern. For example, if the pattern is coil , foil differs by one substitution, coils by one insertion, oil by one deletion, and foal by two substitutions.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATLAB

    MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages. Although MATLAB is intended primarily for numeric computing, an optional toolbox uses the MuPAD symbolic engine allowing access to symbolic computing abilities.

    Scholars show how multiple planet movements tie into the 819-day Mayan calendar. The 819 days of the calendar must be viewed across a 45-year time period to fully understand.
