Pattern Matching
text / pattern
Knuth-Morris-Pratt avoids redundant comparisons by pre-computing a failure function. When a mismatch occurs, the pattern shifts by the maximum safe amount — never re-scanning matched characters.
An interactive step-by-step visualization for KMP String Matching is currently being built. You will see both phases: failure function construction and the matching scan with skip animations.
