  2. Letter frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency

    The California Job Case was a compartmentalized box for printing in the 19th century, sizes corresponding to the commonality of letters. The frequency of letters in text has been studied for use in cryptanalysis, and frequency analysis in particular, dating back to the Arab mathematician al-Kindi (c. AD 801–873 ), who formally developed the method (the ciphers breakable by this technique go ...

  3. Frequency analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_analysis

    Eve could use frequency analysis to help solve the message along the following lines: counts of the letters in the cryptogram show that I is the most common single letter, [2] XL most common bigram, and XLI is the most common trigram. e is the most common letter in the English language, th is the most common bigram, and the is the

  4. Index of coincidence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_of_coincidence

    Each of the n i occurrences of the i-th letter matches each of the remaining n i − 1 occurrences of the same letter. There are a total of N(N − 1) letter pairs in the entire text, and 1/c is the probability of a match for each pair, assuming a uniform random distribution of the characters (the "null model"; see below). Thus, this formula ...

  5. String-searching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String-searching_algorithm

    A string-searching algorithm, sometimes called string-matching algorithm, is an algorithm that searches a body of text for portions that match by pattern. A basic example of string searching is when the pattern and the searched text are arrays of elements of an alphabet ( finite set ) Σ.

    strings Text to be searched for. [drive:][path]filename Specifies a file or files to search. Flags: /B Matches pattern if at the beginning of a line. /E Matches pattern if at the end of a line. /L Uses search strings literally. /R Uses search strings as regular expressions. /S Searches for matching files in the current directory and all ...

  7. Reference counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_counting

    The reference count of a string is checked before mutating a string. This allows reference count 1 strings to be mutated directly whilst higher reference count strings are copied before mutation. This allows the general behaviour of old style pascal strings to be preserved whilst eliminating the cost of copying the string on every assignment.

  9. Weight (strings) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_(strings)

    The -weight of a string, for a letter , is the number of times that letter occurs in the string.More precisely, let be a finite set (called the alphabet), a letter of , and a string (where is the free monoid generated by the elements of , equivalently the set of strings, including the empty string, whose letters are from ).
