General software features

Set of C and Java code to implement algorithms on strings :

  • Pattern matching automata
  • String searching with a sliding window
  • Suffix arrays
  • Structures for indexes
  • Indexes
  • Alignments
  • Approximate patterns
  • Local periods

These algorithms are presented in [Crochemore, Hancart, Lecroq, 2001].

Context in which the software is used

This set of programs was provided to explain the algorithms of the book [Crochemore, Hancart, Lecroq, 2001].
This is the first French book dedicated to string process algorithms.
