The brute force algorithm
The brute force algorithm is also called the naive approach to pattern matching algorithms. Naive approach means that it is a very basic and simple algorithm. In this approach, we match all the possible combinations of the input pattern in the given text string to find the position of the occurrence of the pattern. This algorithm is very naive and is not suitable if the text is very long.
In this algorithm, we start by comparing the characters of the pattern string and the text string one by one, and if all the characters of the pattern are matched with the text, we return the index position of the text where the first character of the pattern is located. If any character of the pattern is mismatched with the text string, we shift the pattern by one position to check if the pattern appears at the next index position. We continue comparing the pattern and text string by shifting the pattern by one index position.
