Pattern Matching Algorithms

Image
Introduction Pattern Searching algorithms are used to find a pattern or substring from another bigger string. There are different algorithms. The main goal is to design these types of algorithms to reduce the time complexity. The traditional approach may take lots of time to complete the pattern searching task for a longer text. The blog describes a few standard algorithms used for processing texts. They apply, for example, to the manipulation of texts (text editors), to the storage of textual data (text compression), and to data retrieval systems. The algorithms of the chapter are interesting in different respects. First, they are basic components used in the implementations of practical software. Second, they introduce programming methods that serve as paradigms in other fields of computer science (system or software design). Third, they play an important role in theoretical computer science by providing challenging problems.  In this blog, texts and elements of patterns are stri...
