Go Longest Common Subsequence (LCS)

A package to calculate LCS of slices.

Usage

go get github.com/yudai/golcs

import " github.com/yudai/golcs"

left = []interface{}{1, 2, 5, 3, 1, 1, 5, 8, 3}
right = []interface{}{1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 1, 6}

lcs := golcs.New(left, right)

lcs.Values()     // LCS values       => []interface{}{1, 2, 5, 1}
lcs.IndexPairs() // Matched indices  => [{Left: 0, Right: 0}, {Left: 1, Right: 1}, {Left: 2, Right: 6}, {Left: 4, Right: 7}]
lcs.Length()     // Matched length   => 4

lcs.Table()      // Memo table

All the methods of Lcs cache their return values. For example, the memo table is calculated only once and reused when Values(), Length() and other methods are called.

FAQ

How can I give []byte values to Lcs() as its arguments?

As []interface{} is incompatible with []othertype like []byte, you need to create a []interface{} slice and copy the values in your []byte slice into it. Unfortunately, Go doesn't provide any mesure to cast a slice into []interface{} with zero cost. Your copy costs O(n).

leftBytes := []byte("TGAGTA")
left = make([]interface{}, len(leftBytes))
for i, v := range leftBytes {
	left[i] = v
}

rightBytes := []byte("GATA")
right = make([]interface{}, len(rightBytes))
for i, v := range rightBytes {
	right[i] = v
}

lcs.New(left, right)
