 | Class SequenceMatcher | 
 |  | 
 | SequenceMatcher is a flexible class for comparing pairs of sequences of any | 
 | type, so long as the sequence elements are hashable.  The basic algorithm | 
 | predates, and is a little fancier than, an algorithm published in the late | 
 | 1980's by Ratcliff and Obershelp under the hyperbolic name "gestalt pattern | 
 | matching".  The basic idea is to find the longest contiguous matching | 
 | subsequence that contains no "junk" elements (R-O doesn't address junk). | 
 | The same idea is then applied recursively to the pieces of the sequences to | 
 | the left and to the right of the matching subsequence.  This does not yield | 
 | minimal edit sequences, but does tend to yield matches that "look right" | 
 | to people. | 
 |  | 
 | Example, comparing two strings, and considering blanks to be "junk": | 
 |  | 
 | >>> s = SequenceMatcher(lambda x: x == " ", | 
 | ...                     "private Thread currentThread;", | 
 | ...                     "private volatile Thread currentThread;") | 
 | >>> | 
 |  | 
 | .ratio() returns a float in [0, 1], measuring the "similarity" of the | 
 | sequences.  As a rule of thumb, a .ratio() value over 0.6 means the | 
 | sequences are close matches: | 
 |  | 
 | >>> print round(s.ratio(), 3) | 
 | 0.866 | 
 | >>> | 
 |  | 
 | If you're only interested in where the sequences match, | 
 | .get_matching_blocks() is handy: | 
 |  | 
 | >>> for block in s.get_matching_blocks(): | 
 | ...     print "a[%d] and b[%d] match for %d elements" % block | 
 | a[0] and b[0] match for 8 elements | 
 | a[8] and b[17] match for 6 elements | 
 | a[14] and b[23] match for 15 elements | 
 | a[29] and b[38] match for 0 elements | 
 |  | 
 | Note that the last tuple returned by .get_matching_blocks() is always a | 
 | dummy, (len(a), len(b), 0), and this is the only case in which the last | 
 | tuple element (number of elements matched) is 0. | 
 |  | 
 | If you want to know how to change the first sequence into the second, use | 
 | .get_opcodes(): | 
 |  | 
 | >>> for opcode in s.get_opcodes(): | 
 | ...     print "%6s a[%d:%d] b[%d:%d]" % opcode | 
 |  equal a[0:8] b[0:8] | 
 | insert a[8:8] b[8:17] | 
 |  equal a[8:14] b[17:23] | 
 |  equal a[14:29] b[23:38] | 
 |  | 
 | See Tools/scripts/ndiff.py for a fancy human-friendly file differencer, | 
 | which uses SequenceMatcher both to view files as sequences of lines, and | 
 | lines as sequences of characters. | 
 |  | 
 | See also function get_close_matches() in this module, which shows how | 
 | simple code building on SequenceMatcher can be used to do useful work. | 
 |  | 
 | Timing:  Basic R-O is cubic time worst case and quadratic time expected | 
 | case.  SequenceMatcher is quadratic time for the worst case and has | 
 | expected-case behavior dependent in a complicated way on how many | 
 | elements the sequences have in common; best case time is linear. | 
 |  | 
 | SequenceMatcher methods: | 
 |  | 
 | __init__(isjunk=None, a='', b='') | 
 |     Construct a SequenceMatcher. | 
 |  | 
 |     Optional arg isjunk is None (the default), or a one-argument function | 
 |     that takes a sequence element and returns true iff the element is junk. | 
 |     None is equivalent to passing "lambda x: 0", i.e. no elements are | 
 |     considered to be junk.  For example, pass | 
 |         lambda x: x in " \\t" | 
 |     if you're comparing lines as sequences of characters, and don't want to | 
 |     synch up on blanks or hard tabs. | 
 |  | 
 |     Optional arg a is the first of two sequences to be compared.  By | 
 |     default, an empty string.  The elements of a must be hashable. | 
 |  | 
 |     Optional arg b is the second of two sequences to be compared.  By | 
 |     default, an empty string.  The elements of b must be hashable. | 
 |  | 
 | set_seqs(a, b) | 
 |     Set the two sequences to be compared. | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher() | 
 |     >>> s.set_seqs("abcd", "bcde") | 
 |     >>> s.ratio() | 
 |     0.75 | 
 |  | 
 | set_seq1(a) | 
 |     Set the first sequence to be compared. | 
 |  | 
 |     The second sequence to be compared is not changed. | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, "abcd", "bcde") | 
 |     >>> s.ratio() | 
 |     0.75 | 
 |     >>> s.set_seq1("bcde") | 
 |     >>> s.ratio() | 
 |     1.0 | 
 |     >>> | 
 |  | 
 |     SequenceMatcher computes and caches detailed information about the | 
 |     second sequence, so if you want to compare one sequence S against many | 
 |     sequences, use .set_seq2(S) once and call .set_seq1(x) repeatedly for | 
 |     each of the other sequences. | 
 |  | 
 |     See also set_seqs() and set_seq2(). | 
 |  | 
 | set_seq2(b) | 
 |     Set the second sequence to be compared. | 
 |  | 
 |     The first sequence to be compared is not changed. | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, "abcd", "bcde") | 
 |     >>> s.ratio() | 
 |     0.75 | 
 |     >>> s.set_seq2("abcd") | 
 |     >>> s.ratio() | 
 |     1.0 |

 |     each of the other sequences. | 
 |  | 
 |     See also set_seqs() and set_seq1(). | 
 |  | 
 | find_longest_match(alo, ahi, blo, bhi) | 
 |     Find longest matching block in a[alo:ahi] and b[blo:bhi]. | 
 |  | 
 |     If isjunk is not defined: | 
 |  | 
 |     Return (i,j,k) such that a[i:i+k] is equal to b[j:j+k], where | 
 |         alo <= i <= i+k <= ahi | 
 |         blo <= j <= j+k <= bhi | 
 |     and for all (i',j',k') meeting those conditions, | 
 |         k >= k' | 
 |         i <= i' | 
 |         and if i == i', j <= j' | 
 |  | 
 |     In other words, of all maximal matching blocks, return one that starts | 
 |     earliest in a, and of all those maximal matching blocks that start | 
 |     earliest in a, return the one that starts earliest in b. | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, " abcd", "abcd abcd") | 
 |     >>> s.find_longest_match(0, 5, 0, 9) | 
 |     (0, 4, 5) | 
 |  | 
 |     If isjunk is defined, first the longest matching block is determined as | 
 |     above, but with the additional restriction that no junk element appears | 
 |     in the block.  Then that block is extended as far as possible by | 
 |     matching (only) junk elements on both sides.  So the resulting block | 
 |     never matches on junk except as identical junk happens to be adjacent | 
 |     to an "interesting" match. | 
 |  | 
 |     Here's the same example as before, but considering blanks to be junk. | 
 |     That prevents " abcd" from matching the " abcd" at the tail end of the | 
 |     second sequence directly.  Instead only the "abcd" can match, and | 
 |     matches the leftmost "abcd" in the second sequence: | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(lambda x: x==" ", " abcd", "abcd abcd") | 
 |     >>> s.find_longest_match(0, 5, 0, 9) | 
 |     (1, 0, 4) | 
 |  | 
 |     If no blocks match, return (alo, blo, 0). | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, "ab", "c") | 
 |     >>> s.find_longest_match(0, 2, 0, 1) | 
 |     (0, 0, 0) | 
 |  | 
 | get_matching_blocks() | 
 |     Return list of triples describing matching subsequences. | 
 |  | 
 |     Each triple is of the form (i, j, n), and means that | 
 |     a[i:i+n] == b[j:j+n].  The triples are monotonically increasing in i | 
 |     and in j. | 
 |  | 
 |     The last triple is a dummy, (len(a), len(b), 0), and is the only triple | 
 |     with n==0. | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, "abxcd", "abcd") | 
 |     >>> s.get_matching_blocks() | 
 |     [(0, 0, 2), (3, 2, 2), (5, 4, 0)] | 
 |  | 
 | get_opcodes() | 
 |     Return list of 5-tuples describing how to turn a into b. | 
 |  | 
 |     Each tuple is of the form (tag, i1, i2, j1, j2).  The first tuple has | 
 |     i1 == j1 == 0, and remaining tuples have i1 == the i2 from the tuple | 
 |     preceding it, and likewise for j1 == the previous j2. | 
 |  | 
 |     The tags are strings, with these meanings: | 
 |  | 
 |     'replace':  a[i1:i2] should be replaced by b[j1:j2] | 
 |     'delete':   a[i1:i2] should be deleted. | 
 |                 Note that j1==j2 in this case. | 
 |     'insert':   b[j1:j2] should be inserted at a[i1:i1]. | 
 |                 Note that i1==i2 in this case. | 
 |     'equal':    a[i1:i2] == b[j1:j2] | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> a = "qabxcd" | 
 |     >>> b = "abycdf" | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, a, b) | 
 |     >>> for tag, i1, i2, j1, j2 in s.get_opcodes(): | 
 |     ...    print ("%7s a[%d:%d] (%s) b[%d:%d] (%s)" % | 
 |     ...           (tag, i1, i2, a[i1:i2], j1, j2, b[j1:j2])) | 
 |      delete a[0:1] (q) b[0:0] () | 
 |       equal a[1:3] (ab) b[0:2] (ab) | 
 |     replace a[3:4] (x) b[2:3] (y) | 
 |       equal a[4:6] (cd) b[3:5] (cd) | 
 |      insert a[6:6] () b[5:6] (f) | 
 |  | 
 | ratio() | 
 |     Return a measure of the sequences' similarity (float in [0,1]). | 
 |  | 
 |     Where T is the total number of elements in both sequences, and M is the | 
 |     number of matches, this is 2,0*M / T. Note that this is 1 if the | 
 |     sequences are identical, and 0 if they have nothing in common. | 
 |  | 
 |     .ratio() is expensive to compute if you haven't already computed | 
 |     .get_matching_blocks() or .get_opcodes(), in which case you may want to | 
 |     try .quick_ratio() or .real_quick_ratio() first to get an upper bound. | 
 |  | 
 |     >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, "abcd", "bcde") | 
 |     >>> s.ratio() | 
 |     0.75 | 
 |     >>> s.quick_ratio() | 
 |     0.75 | 
 |     >>> s.real_quick_ratio() | 
 |     1.0 | 
 |  | 
 | quick_ratio() | 
 |     Return an upper bound on .ratio() relatively quickly. | 
 |  | 
 |     This isn't defined beyond that it is an upper bound on .ratio(), and | 
 |     is faster to compute. | 
 |  | 
 | real_quick_ratio(): | 
 |     Return an upper bound on ratio() very quickly. | 
 |  | 
 |     This isn't defined beyond that it is an upper bound on .ratio(), and | 
 |     is faster to compute than either .ratio() or .quick_ratio(). |
