  2. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    String functions are used in computer programming languages to manipulate a string or query information about a string (some do both).. Most programming languages that have a string datatype will have some string functions although there may be other low-level ways within each language to handle strings directly.

  3. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    If the tree is traversed from the bottom up with a bit vector telling which strings are seen below each node, the k-common substring problem can be solved in () time. If the suffix tree is prepared for constant time lowest common ancestor retrieval, it can be solved in () time. [2]

  4. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    After computing E(i, j) for all i and j, we can easily find a solution to the original problem: it is the substring for which E(m, j) is minimal (m being the length of the pattern P.) Computing E ( m , j ) is very similar to computing the edit distance between two strings.

  5. 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.

  6. Longest repeated substring problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_repeated_substring...

    The string spelled by the edges from the root to such a node is a longest repeated substring. The problem of finding the longest substring with at least k {\displaystyle k} occurrences can be solved by first preprocessing the tree to count the number of leaf descendants for each internal node, and then finding the deepest node with at least k ...

  7. Substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substring

    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.

  8. Boyer–Moore–Horspool algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer–Moore–Horspool...

    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. The worst case behavior happens when the bad character skip is consistently low (with the lower limit of 1 byte movement) and a large portion of the needle matches the haystack.
