  2. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    The closeness of a match is measured in terms of the number of primitive operations necessary to convert the string into an exact match. This number is called the edit distance between the string and the pattern. The usual primitive operations are: [1] insertion: cot → coat; deletion: coat → cot; substitution: coat → cost

  4. Boyer–Moore string-search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer–Moore_string-search...

    This lookup will return the occurrence of c in P with the next-highest index ⁠ < ⁠ or -1 if there is no such occurrence. The proposed shift will then be ⁠ i − j {\displaystyle i-j} ⁠ , with ⁠ O ( 1 ) {\displaystyle O(1)} ⁠ lookup time and ⁠ O ( k m ) {\displaystyle O(km)} ⁠ space, assuming a finite alphabet of length k .

  5. 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.

  6. Trie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie

    Instead, each node's position within the trie determines its associated key, with the connections between nodes defined by individual characters rather than the entire key. Tries are particularly effective for tasks such as autocomplete, spell checking, and IP routing, offering advantages over hash tables due to their prefix-based organization ...

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    For example, one could define a dictionary having a string "toast" mapped to the integer 42 or vice versa. The keys in a dictionary must be of an immutable Python type, such as an integer or a string, because under the hood they are implemented via a hash function. This makes for much faster lookup times, but requires keys not change.

  8. Comparison of programming languages (associative array)

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

    The user can search for elements in an associative array, and delete elements from the array. The following shows how multi-dimensional associative arrays can be simulated in standard AWK using concatenation and the built-in string-separator variable SUBSEP:

  9. Service locator pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_locator_pattern

    For example, you may wish to invoke a "IShippingStrategy" instance obtained via a service location call, supplying a "ShippingContext" as a parameter to service locator stating what is being shipped from where and where to, so service locator can match the best case (e.g. using a pattern match score).
