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 ...
Czech – až naprší a uschne meaning "When it rains and dries". [clarify] Another expression is až opadá listí z dubu ("When the leaves fall from the oak") Danish – når der er to torsdage i én uge ("when there are two Thursdays in one week")
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.
If you're familiar with the "Shell Game," the classic game that sees an object being placed under a cup or shell, which challenges you to remember which shell the object is under, you'll instantly ...

Needle in a haystack may refer to: "Needle in a Haystack" ( House ) , an episode of the TV series House "Needle in a Haystack", an episode of the TV series Mythbusters
For instance a 32 byte needle ending in "z" searching through a 255 byte haystack which does not have a 'z' byte in it would take up to 224 byte comparisons. The best case is the same as for the Boyer–Moore string-search algorithm in big O notation, although the constant overhead of initialization and for each loop is less.
