There are many popular string processing algorithms available, depending upon the problem being solved. However, one of the most important, popular, and useful string processing problems is to find a given substring or pattern from some given text. It has various application uses, such as searching an element from a text document, plagiarism detection, and so on.
In this chapter, we will study the standard string processing or pattern matching algorithms that find out the locations of the given pattern or substring in some given text. We will also be discussing the brute-force algorithm, as well as the Rabin-Karp, Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP), and Boyer-Moore pattern matching algorithms. We will also discuss some basic concepts related to strings. We will be discussing all of the algorithms with an easy explanation, including examples and implementation...
