/*! An implementation of the [Rabin-Karp substring search algorithm][rabinkarp]. Rabin-Karp works by creating a hash of the needle provided and then computing a rolling hash for each needle sized window in the haystack. When the rolling hash matches the hash of the needle, a byte-wise comparison is done to check if a match exists. The worst case time complexity of Rabin-Karp is `O(m * n)` where `m ~ len(needle)` and `n ~ len(haystack)`. Its worst case space complexity is constant. The main utility of Rabin-Karp is that the searcher can be constructed very quickly with very little memory. This makes it especially useful when searching for small needles in small haystacks, as it might finish its search before a beefier algorithm (like Two-Way) even starts.

The comment still looks useful, but it's a bit in the weeds, so it's not public itself.) This module implements the classical Rabin-Karp substring search algorithm, with no extra frills. While its use would seem to break our time complexity guarantee of O(m+n) (RK's time complexity is O(mn)), we are careful to only ever use RK on a constant subset of haystacks. The main point here is that RK has good latency properties for small needles/haystacks. It's very quick to compute a needle hash and zip through the haystack when compared to initializing Two-Way, for example. And this is especially useful for cases where the haystack is just too short for vector instructions to do much good. The hashing function used here is the same one recommended by ESMAJ. Another choice instead of Rabin-Karp would be Shift-Or. But its latency isn't quite as good since its preprocessing time is a bit more expensive (both in practice and in theory). However, perhaps Shift-Or has a place somewhere else for short patterns. I think the main problem is that it requires space proportional to the alphabet and the needle. If we, for example, supported needles up to length 16, then the total table size would be len(alphabet)*size_of::()==512 bytes. Which isn't exactly small, and it's probably bad to put that on the stack. So ideally, we'd throw it on the heap, but we'd really like to write as much code without using alloc/std as possible. But maybe it's worth the special casing. It's a TODO to benchmark. Wikipedia has a decent explanation, if a bit heavy on the theory: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabin%E2%80%93Karp_algorithm But ESMAJ provides something a bit more concrete: http://www-igm.univ-mlv.fr/~lecroq/string/node5.html Finally, aho-corasick uses Rabin-Karp for multiple pattern match in some cases: https://github.com/BurntSushi/aho-corasick/blob/3852632f10587db0ff72ef29e88d58bf305a0946/src/packed/rabinkarp.rs */ use crate::ext::Pointer; /// A forward substring searcher using the Rabin-Karp algorithm. /// /// Note that, as a lower level API, a `Finder` does not have access to the /// needle it was constructed with.
