Description

There are general homework guidelines you must always follow. If you fail to follow any of the following guidelines you risk receiving a 0 for the entire assignment.
1. All submitted code must compile under JDK 8. This includes unused code, so don’t submit extra files that don’t compile. Any compile errors will result in a 0.
2. Do not include any package declarations in your classes.
3. Do not change any existing class headers, constructors, instance/global variables, or method signatures.
4. Do not add additional public methods.
5. Do not use anything that would trivialize the assignment. (e.g. don’t import/use java.util.ArrayList for an Array List assignment. Ask if you are unsure.)
6. Always be very conscious of efficiency. Even if your method is to be O(n), traversing the structure multiple times is considered inefficient unless that is absolutely required (and that case is extremely rare).
7. You must submit your source code, the .java files, not the compiled .class files.
8. After you submit your files, redownload them and run them to make sure they are what you intended to submit. You are responsible if you submit the wrong files.
Pattern Matching
For all of the algorithms, make sure you check the simple failure cases as soon as possible. For example, if the pattern is longer than the text, don’t do any preprocessing on the pattern/text and just return an empty list since there cannot be any occurrences of the pattern in the text.
CharacterComparator
CharacterComparator is a comparator that takes in two characters and compares them. This allows you to see how many times you have called compare(); besides this functionality, its return values are what you’d expect a properly implemented compare() method to return. You must use this comparator as the number of times you call compare() with it will be used when testing your assignment.
If you do not use the passed in comparator, this will cause tests to fail and will significantly lower your grade on this assignment.
You must implement the algorithms as they were taught in class. We are expecting exact comparison counts for this homework. If you are getting fewer comparison counts than expected, it means one of two things, either you implemented the algorithm wrong (most likely) or you are using an optimization not taught in the class (unlikely).
Knuth-Morris-Pratt
Failure Table
The Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) algorithm relies on using the prefix of the pattern to determine how much to shift the pattern by. The algorithm itself uses what is known as the failure table (also called failure function). This is an array of length m where each index will correspond to the characters at that index in the pattern. Each index i of the failure table should contain the length of the longest proper (not the entire string) prefix that matches a proper suffix of pattern[0, …, i]. There are different ways of calculating the failure table, but we are expecting one specific format described below.
For any string pattern, have a pointer i starting at the first letter, a pointer j starting at the second letter, and an array called table that is the length of the pattern. First, set index 0 of table to 0. Then, while j is still a valid index within pattern:
• If the characters pointed to by i and j match, then write i + 1 to index j of the table and increment i and j.
• If the characters pointed to by i and j do not match:
– If i is not at 0, then change i to table[i – 1]. Do not increment j or write any value to the table.
– If i is at 0, then write i to index j of the table. Increment only j.
For example, for the string abacab, the failure table will be:
a b a c a b
0 0 1 0 1 2
For the string ababac, the failure table will be:
a b a b a c
0 0 1 2 3 0
For the string abaababa, the failure table will be:
a b a a b a b a
0 0 1 1 2 3 2 3
For the string aaaaaa, the failure table will be:
a a a a a a
0 1 2 3 4 5
Searching Algorithm
For the main searching algorithm, the search acts like a standard brute-force search for the most part, but in the case of a mismatch:
• If the mismatch occurs at index 0 of the pattern, then shift the pattern by 1.
• If the mismatch occurs at index j of the pattern and index i of the text, then shift the pattern such that index failure[j-1] of the pattern lines up with index i of the text, where failure is the failure table. Then, continue the comparisons at index i of the text (or index failure[j-1] of the pattern). Do not restart at index 0 of the pattern.
In addition, if the whole pattern is ever matched, instead of shifting the pattern over by 1 to continue searching for more matches, the pattern should be shifted over by failure[j-1], where j is at pattern.length. KMP treats a match as a “mismatch” on the character immediately following the match.
Boyer-Moore
Last Occurrence Table
Key properties of Boyer-Moore include matching characters starting at the end of the pattern, rather than the beginning and skipping along the text in jumps of multiple characters rather than searching every single character in the text.
The shifting rule considers the character in the text at which the comparison process failed (assuming that a failure occurred). If the last occurrence of that character is to the left in the pattern, shift so that the pattern occurrence aligns with the mismatched text occurrence. If the last occurrence of the mismatched character does not occur to the left in the pattern, shift the pattern over by one (to prevent the pattern from moving backwards). In addition, if the mismatched character does not exist in the pattern at all (no value in last table) then pattern shifts completely past this point in the text.
For finding multiple occurrences, if you find a match, shift the pattern over by one and continue searching.
Rabin-Karp
Note: You must use the exact rolling hash function specified in the javadocs. You are not allowed to use Math.pow() for the intial hash calculation, nor are you allowed to use it for updating the text hash. This is because exponentiating a number is not an O(1) operation, so creating your own custom power method will also not work.

A note on JUnits
If you need help on running JUnits, there is a guide, available on Canvas under Files, to help you run JUnits on the command line or in IntelliJ.
Style and Formatting
It is important that your code is not only functional but is also written clearly and with good style. We will be checking your code against a style checker that we are providing. It is located on Canvas, under Files, along with instructions on how to use it. We will take off a point for every style error that occurs. If you feel like what you wrote is in accordance with good style but still sets off the style checker please email Tim Aveni (tja@gatech.edu) with the subject header of “[CS 1332] CheckStyle XML”.
Javadocs
Vulgar/Obscene Language
Any submission that contains profanity, vulgar, or obscene language will receive an automatic zero on the assignment. This policy applies not only to comments/javadocs but also things like variable names.
Exceptions
When throwing exceptions, you must include a message by passing in a String as a parameter. The message must be useful and tell the user what went wrong. “Error”, “BAD THING HAPPENED”, and “fail” are not good messages. The name of the exception itself is not a good message.
For example:
Bad: throw new IndexOutOfBoundsException(“Index is out of bounds.”);
Good: throw new IllegalArgumentException(“Cannot insert null data into data structure.”);
Generics
If available, use the generic type of the class; do not use the raw type of the class. For example, use new LinkedNode<Integer>() instead of new LinkedNode(). Using the raw type of the class will result in a penalty.
Forbidden Statements
• package
• System.arraycopy()
• clone()
• assert()
• Arrays class
• Array class
• Thread class
• Collections class
• Collection.toArray()
• Reflection APIs
• Inner or nested classes

If you’re not sure on whether you can use something, and it’s not mentioned here or anywhere else in the homework files, just ask.
Debug print statements are fine, but nothing should be printed when we run your code. We expect clean runs – printing to the console when we’re grading will result in a penalty. If you submit these, we will take off points.
