NAME
LCS - Longest Common Subsequence



SYNOPSIS
use LCS;
DESCRIPTION
LCS is an implementation based on a LCS algorithm.
CONSTRUCTOR
- new()
-
Creates a new object which maintains internal storage areas for the LCS computation. Use one of these per concurrent LCS() call.
METHODS
- LCS(\@a,\@b)
-
Finds a Longest Common Subsequence, taking two arrayrefs as method arguments. It returns an array reference of corresponding indices, which are represented by 2-element array refs.
- LLCS(\@a,\@b)
-
Calculates the length of the Longest Common Subsequence.
- allLCS(\@a,\@b)
-
Finds all Longest Common Subsequences. It returns an array reference of all LCS.
- lcs2align(\@a,\@b,$LCS)
-
Returns the two sequences aligned, missing positions are represented as empty strings.
- sequences2hunks($a, $b)
-
Transforms two array references of scalars to an array of hunks (two element arrays).
- hunks2sequences($hunks)
-
Transforms an array of hunks to two arrays of scalars.
- align2strings($hunks, $gap_character)
-
Returns two strings aligned with gap characters.
- fill_strings($string1, $string2, $fill_character)
-
If one of the two strings is shorter, fills it up to the same length.
- max($i, $j)
-
Returns the maximum of two numbers.
EXPORT
None by design.
