  3. 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.

    If is a set of symbols or characters, then is the set of all strings over symbols in , including the empty string . The set V ∗ {\\displaystyle V^{*}} can also be described as the set containing the empty string and all finite-length strings that can be generated by concatenating arbitrary elements of V {\\displaystyle V} , allowing the use ...

    By doing so, zero strings in have length greater than . The pumping lemma was first proven by Michael Rabin and Dana Scott in 1959, [1] and rediscovered shortly after by Yehoshua Bar-Hillel, Micha A. Perles, and Eli Shamir in 1961, as a simplification of their pumping lemma for context-free languages. [2] [3]

  6. Regular expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression

    This has led to a nomenclature where the term regular expression has different meanings in formal language theory and pattern matching. For this reason, some people have taken to using the term regex, regexp, or simply pattern to describe the latter. Larry Wall, author of the Perl programming language, writes in an essay about the design of Raku:

  7. 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 ...

  8. Pattern matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_matching

    The constructor is a node in a tree and the integer and string are leaves in branches. When we want to write functions to make Color an abstract data type, we wish to write functions to interface with the data type, and thus we want to extract some data from the data type, for example, just the string or just the integer part of Color.

  9. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports most object oriented programming (OOP) techniques. It allows polymorphism, not only within a class hierarchy but also by duck typing. Any object can be used for any type, and it will work so long as it has the proper methods and attributes. And everything in Python is an object, including classes, functions, numbers and modules.
