• Goal: Given text, find the occurrences of a pattern in it and return the locations of match. The project focuses on benchmarking the following:

  • KMP
  • Boyer Moore
  • Naive approach

• Tools/Libraries used (incremental):

  • cProfile
  • pycallgraph
  • graphViz
  • GUI valgrind for python
