  2. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    The longest common substrings of a set of strings can be found by building a generalized suffix tree for the strings, and then finding the deepest internal nodes which have leaf nodes from all the strings in the subtree below it. The figure on the right is the suffix tree for the strings "ABAB", "BABA" and "ABBA", padded with unique string ...

  3. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

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

    String functions common to many languages are listed below, including the different names used. The below list of common functions aims to help programmers find the equivalent function in a language. Note, string concatenation and regular expressions are handled in separate pages.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Longest palindromic substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_palindromic_substring

    For example, the longest palindromic substring of "bananas" is "anana". The longest palindromic substring is not guaranteed to be unique; for example, in the string "abracadabra", there is no palindromic substring with length greater than three, but there are two palindromic substrings with length three, namely, "aca" and "ada".

  6. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_(computer_science)

    When a string appears literally in source code, it is known as a string literal or an anonymous string. [ 1 ] In formal languages , which are used in mathematical logic and theoretical computer science , a string is a finite sequence of symbols that are chosen from a set called an alphabet .

  7. Edit distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edit_distance

    More formally, for any language L and string x over an alphabet Σ, the language edit distance d(L, x) is given by [14] (,) = (,), where (,) is the string edit distance. When the language L is context free , there is a cubic time dynamic programming algorithm proposed by Aho and Peterson in 1972 which computes the language edit distance. [ 15 ]

  8. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In Python 3.x the range() function [28] returns a generator which computes elements of the list on demand. Elements are only generated when they are needed (e.g., when print(r[3]) is evaluated in the following example), so this is an example of lazy or deferred evaluation:

  9. Longest increasing subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_increasing_subsequence

    The longest increasing subsequence has also been studied in the setting of online algorithms, in which the elements of a sequence of independent random variables with continuous distribution – or alternatively the elements of a random permutation – are presented one at a time to an algorithm that must decide whether to include or exclude ...
