Python - Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) string-matching algorithm
# File: KnuthMorrisPratt.py
# Author: Keith Schwarz ([email protected])
#
# An implementation of the Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) string-matching algorithm.
# This algorithm takes as input a pattern string P and target string T, then
# finds the first occurrence of the string T in the pattern P, doing so in time
# O(|P| + |T|). The logic behind the algorithm is not particularly complex,
# though getting it to run in linear time requires a few non-obvious tricks.
#
# To motivate KMP, consider the naive algorithm for trying to match a pattern

Python - Matrix Find
# File: MatrixFind.py
# Author: Keith Schwarz ([email protected])
#
# An algorithm for finding a specific value in a specially-formatted matrix of
# values.
#
# The algorithm takes as input a matrix of values where each row and each
# column are in sorted order, along with a value to locate in that array, then
# returns whether that element exists in the matrix. For example, given the
# matrix
