# Implementation of longest common subsequence (LCS) algorithm, with
# memoization and scoring. The algorithm is a base of utilities like
# diff - it finds the common items in two sequences.
#
# The memoization part is about remembering the results of LCS
# computation for shorter sequences, so they can be reused when doing
# computation for longer sequences.
#
# The scoring part is about generalization of the comparison function,
# which normally would return a boolean value describing whether two
# items are equal or not. With scoring, two things change. First is
# that the returned value from the comparison/scoring function is not
# a boolean, but rather an integer describing the degree of equality
# of the items. And second is that with booleans, the winning
# subsequence was the longest one, but with scores is not necessarily
# the longest one, but with the highest total score. This changes the
# algorithm a bit. While the typical LCS algorithm goes like as
# follows (s1 and s2 are sequences, i1 and i2 are indices in their
# respective sequences):
#
#
#
# LCS(s1, s2, i1, i2) -> sequence:
# if (i1 >= len(s1) || i2 >= len(s2)): return ()
# if (s1[i1] == s2[i2]):
# l = LCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2 + 1)
# return (s1[i1], l...)
# else:
# l1 = LCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2)
# l2 = LCS(s1, s2, i1, i2 + 1)
# if (len(l1) > len(l2)): return l1
# return l2
#
#
#
# The score LCS goes more or less like this:
#
#
#
# SLCS(s1, s2, i1, i2) -> tuple(score, sequence):
# if (i1 >= len(s1) || i2 >= len(21)): return (score: 0, sequence: ())
# score = score_func(s1[i1], s2[i2])
# if (score == max_score):
# # matches the "equal" case in LCS above
# l = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2 + 1)
# return (score: score + l.score, sequence: (s1[i1], l.sequence...)
# else if (score == 0):
# # matches the "not equal" case in LCS above
# l1 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2)
# l2 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1, i2 + 1)
# if (l1.score > l2.score): return l1
# return l2
# else:
# # new "equal, but not quite" case
# l = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2 + 1)
# l.score = score + l.score
# l.sequence = (s1[i1], l.sequence...)
# l1 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2)
# l2 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1, i2 + 1)
# return tuple_with_max_score(l, l1, l2)
#
#
#
# The difference in the implementation below is that instead of
# starting at index 0 and go up for each sequence, we start at max
# index and go down.

# Computes the longest common subsequence of two sequences and stores
# it in the passed array. The common items stored in the array with
# longest common subsequence are actually names of arrays, where each
# array stores an item from the first sequence, an item from the
# second sequence, an index of the first item in first sequence and an
# index of the second item in the second sequence. To access those
# fields, use the LCS_*_IDX constants.
#
# The function optionally takes a name of the score function. If no
# such function is passed, the simple string score function is used
# (gives score 1 if strings are equal, otherwise gives score 0). The
# function should take either one or three parameters. The first
# parameter is always a name of a score integer variable. If only one
# parameter is passed, the function should write the maximum score to
# the score variable. When three parameters are passed, then the
# second and third are items from the sequences passed to lcs_run and
# they should be compared and rated. The function should rate the
# items with zero if they are completely different, with max score if
# they are the same, and with something in between zero and max score
# if they are somewhat equal but not really.
#
# Params:
#
# 1 - a name of an array variable containing the first sequence
# 2 - a name of an array variable containing the second sequence
# 3 - a name of an array variable where the longest common subsequence
# will be stored
# 4 - optional, a name of a score function
#
# Example:
#
# a=( A B C D E F G )
# b=( B C D G K )
# c=()
#
# lcs_run a b c
#
# echo "a: ${a[*]}"
# echo "b: ${b[*]}"
#
# cn=()
# for i in "${c[@]}"; do
# declare -n ref=${i}
# n=${ref[LCS_X1_IDX]}
