    contains(string,substring) returns boolean Description Returns whether string contains substring as a substring. This is equivalent to using Find and then detecting that it does not result in the failure condition listed in the third column of the Find section.

    string" is a substring of "substring" In formal language theory and computer science, a substring is a contiguous sequence of characters within a string. [citation needed] For instance, "the best of" is a substring of "It was the best of times". In contrast, "Itwastimes" is a subsequence of "It was the best of times", but not a substring.

    This table is used to store the LCS sequence for each step of the calculation. The second column and second row have been filled in with ε, because when an empty sequence is compared with a non-empty sequence, the longest common subsequence is always an empty sequence. LCS(R 1, C 1) is determined by comparing the first elements in each sequence.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    In many applications, the range of hash values may be different for each run of the program or may change along the same run (for instance, when a hash table needs to be expanded). In those situations, one needs a hash function which takes two parameters—the input data z , and the number n of allowed hash values.
