super fast cpp implementation of longest common subsequence
Project description
pylcs
pylcs is a super fast c++ library which adopts dynamic programming(DP) algorithm to solve two classic LCS problems as below .
The longest common subsequence problem is the problem of finding the longest subsequence common to all sequences in a set of sequences (often just two sequences).
The longest common substring problem is to find the longest string (or strings) that is a substring (or are substrings) of two or more strings.
Levenshtein distance, aka edit distance
is also supported. Emm...forget the package name. Example usage is in tests.
We also support Chinese(or any UTF-8) string.
Install
To install, simply do pip install pylcs
to pull down the latest version from PyPI.
Python code example
import pylcs
# finding the longest common subsequence length of string A and string B
A = 'We are shannonai'
B = 'We like shannonai'
pylcs.lcs(A, B)
"""
>>> pylcs.lcs(A, B)
14
"""
# finding the longest common subsequence length of string A and a list of string B
A = 'We are shannonai'
B = ['We like shannonai', 'We work in shannonai', 'We are not shannonai']
pylcs.lcs_of_list(A, B)
"""
>>> pylcs.lcs_of_list(A, B)
[14, 14, 16]
"""
# finding the longest common substring length of string A and string B
A = 'We are shannonai'
B = 'We like shannonai'
pylcs.lcs2(A, B)
"""
>>> pylcs.lcs2(A, B)
11
"""
# finding the longest common substring length of string A and a list of string B
A = 'We are shannonai'
B = ['We like shannonai', 'We work in shannonai', 'We are not shannonai']
pylcs.lcs2_of_list(A, B)
"""
>>> pylcs.lcs2_of_list(A, B)
[11, 10, 10]
