  2. Rope (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope_(data_structure)

    The split point is at the end of a string (i.e. after the last character of a leaf node) The split point is in the middle of a string. The second case reduces to the first by splitting the string at the split point to create two new leaf nodes, then creating a new node that is the parent of the two component strings.

  3. Hirschberg's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirschberg's_algorithm

    Optimality is measured with the Levenshtein distance, defined to be the sum of the costs of insertions, replacements, deletions, and null actions needed to change one string into the other. Hirschberg's algorithm is simply described as a more space-efficient version of the Needleman–Wunsch algorithm that uses divide and conquer . [ 1 ]

  4. Edit distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edit_distance

    Ukkonen's 1985 algorithm takes a string p, called the pattern, and a constant k; it then builds a deterministic finite state automaton that finds, in an arbitrary string s, a substring whose edit distance to p is at most k [13] (cf. the Aho–Corasick algorithm, which similarly constructs an automaton to search for any of a number of patterns ...

  5. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

    rfind(string,substring) returns integer Description Returns the position of the start of the last occurrence of substring in string. If the substring 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.

  6. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    The longest common substrings of a set of strings can be found by building a generalized suffix tree for the strings, and then finding the deepest internal nodes which have leaf nodes from all the strings in the subtree below it. The figure on the right is the suffix tree for the strings "ABAB", "BABA" and "ABBA", padded with unique string ...

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports a wide variety of string operations. Strings in Python are immutable, so a string operation such as a substitution of characters, that in other programming languages might alter the string in place, returns a new string in Python. Performance considerations sometimes push for using special techniques in programs that modify ...

  8. Two-way string-matching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-way_string-matching...

    In computer science, the two-way string-matching algorithm is a string-searching algorithm, discovered by Maxime Crochemore and Dominique Perrin in 1991. [1] It takes a pattern of size m, called a “needle”, preprocesses it in linear time O(m), producing information that can then be used to search for the needle in any “haystack” string, taking only linear time O(n) with n being the ...

  9. Substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substring

    A string is a substring (or factor) [1] of a string if there exists two strings and such that =.In particular, the empty string is a substring of every string. Example: The string = ana is equal to substrings (and subsequences) of = banana at two different offsets:
