    find(string,substring) returns integer Description Returns the position of the start of the first 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.

  3. glob (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glob_(programming)

    A screenshot of the original 1971 Unix reference page for glob – the owner is dmr, short for Dennis Ritchie.. glob() (/ ɡ l ɒ b /) is a libc function for globbing, which is the archetypal use of pattern matching against the names in a filesystem directory such that a name pattern is expanded into a list of names matching that pattern.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Manipulating_strings

    The simplest operation is taking a substring, a snippet of the string taken at a certain offset (called an "index") from the start or end. There are a number of legacy templates offering this but for new code use {{#invoke:String|sub|string|startIndex|endIndex}}. The indices are one-based (meaning the first is number one), inclusive (meaning ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    A fuzzy Mediawiki search for "angry emoticon" has as a suggested result "andré emotions" In computer science, approximate string matching (often colloquially referred to as fuzzy string searching) is the technique of finding strings that match a pattern approximately (rather than exactly).

  6. Substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substring

    The first occurrence is obtained with = b and = na, while the second occurrence is obtained with = ban and being the empty string. A substring of a string is a prefix of a suffix of the string, and equivalently a suffix of a prefix; for example, nan is a prefix of nana , which is in turn a suffix of banana .

  7. Suffix tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffix_tree

    The total length of all the strings on all of the edges in the tree is (), but each edge can be stored as the position and length of a substring of S, giving a total space usage of () computer words. The worst-case space usage of a suffix tree is seen with a fibonacci word , giving the full 2 n {\displaystyle 2n} nodes.

    MS-DOS commands like dir and Windows apps like File Explorer do not show hidden files by default, unless asked to do so. [4] System (S): When set, indicates that the hosting file is a critical system file that is necessary for the computer to operate properly. MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows use it to mark important system files.

  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.
