A simple fast hybrid pattern-matching algorithm

The Knuth–Morris–Pratt (KMP) pattern-matching algorithm guarantees both independence from alphabet size and worst-case execution time linear in the pattern length; on the other hand, the Boyer–Moore (BM) algorithm provides near-optimal average-case and best-case behaviour, as well as executing very...
