RepetitionRegion


Abstract

class for a repetition region.

Discussion

a repetition region is a region in a string build of a fundamental substring s two or more times in intermediate succession.

Methods

-completeString
returns the repetition region's complete string representation.
-containsIntersectingRangeFrom:
returns YES if the repetition region contains another repetition region in two consecutive substrings. eg: 1000110001 contains 11 intersecting.
-containsRangeFrom:
returns YES if the repetition region's range contains the range from another region.
-fundamentalSubstring
returns the fundamental substring.
-fundamentalSubstringContainsRangeFrom:
returns YES if the repetition region's fundamental substring contains the range from another region.
-initWithFundamentalSubstring:fromIndex:withLength:
initialises a repetition region with a fundamental substring from an index with a length.
-initWithFundamentalSubstring:inRange:
initialises a repetition region with a fundamental substring in a certain range.
-length
returns the repetition region's complete length.
-overlappedByRangeFrom:
returns YES if the repetition region is overlapped by antoher region.
-printToLog
prints the repetition to NSLog().
-range
returns range the repetition region is in.
-repetitionRegionStartingInLastRepetition:
returns YES if another repetition region satrts in the last repetition of the fundamental substring.
-repetitions
returns nuber of repetitions of the fundamental substring.
-splitIntersectingRepetitionRegion:
splits another intersecting repetition region in the intersecting point.
-splitOnIndex:
splits repetition region index.
-startLocation
returns the location of the first repetition.
-trunkateWith:
trunkates repetition region based on an overlapping other region. eg in ab11ab(1111), (1111 trunkateWith: ab11) = 11 (depending on locations)

completeString


returns the repetition region's complete string representation.

- (NSString *)completeString;

containsIntersectingRangeFrom:


returns YES if the repetition region contains another repetition region in two consecutive substrings. eg: 1000110001 contains 11 intersecting.

- (BOOL)containsIntersectingRangeFrom:(RepetitionRegion *)aRepetitionRegion;

containsRangeFrom:


returns YES if the repetition region's range contains the range from another region.

- (BOOL)containsRangeFrom:(RepetitionRegion *)aRepetitionRegion;

fundamentalSubstring


returns the fundamental substring.

- (NSString *)fundamentalSubstring;

fundamentalSubstringContainsRangeFrom:


returns YES if the repetition region's fundamental substring contains the range from another region.

- (BOOL)fundamentalSubstringContainsRangeFrom:(RepetitionRegion *)aRepetitionRegion;

initWithFundamentalSubstring:fromIndex:withLength:


initialises a repetition region with a fundamental substring from an index with a length.

- (id)initWithFundamentalSubstring:(NSString *)aFundamentalSubstring 
        fromIndex:(int)rangeStart withLength:(int)rangeLength;

initWithFundamentalSubstring:inRange:


initialises a repetition region with a fundamental substring in a certain range.

- (id)initWithFundamentalSubstring:(NSString *)aFundamentalSubstring 
        inRange:(NSRange)aRange;

length


returns the repetition region's complete length.

- (int)length;

overlappedByRangeFrom:


returns YES if the repetition region is overlapped by antoher region.

- (BOOL)overlappedByRangeFrom:(RepetitionRegion *)aRepetitionRegion;

printToLog


prints the repetition to NSLog().

- (void)printToLog;

range


returns range the repetition region is in.

- (NSRange)range;

repetitionRegionStartingInLastRepetition:


returns YES if another repetition region satrts in the last repetition of the fundamental substring.

- (BOOL)repetitionRegionStartingInLastRepetition:(RepetitionRegion *)aRepetitionRegion;

repetitions


returns nuber of repetitions of the fundamental substring.

- (int)repetitions;

splitIntersectingRepetitionRegion:


splits another intersecting repetition region in the intersecting point.

- (NSArray *)splitIntersectingRepetitionRegion:(RepetitionRegion *)aRepetitionRegion;
method result
splitted regions in an NSArray if splitting is possible, nil if not.

splitOnIndex:


splits repetition region index.

- (NSArray *)splitOnIndex:(int)index;
method result
splitted regions in an NSArray if splitting is possible, nil if not.

startLocation


returns the location of the first repetition.

- (int)startLocation;

trunkateWith:


trunkates repetition region based on an overlapping other region. eg in ab11ab(1111), (1111 trunkateWith: ab11) = 11 (depending on locations)

- (BOOL)trunkateWith:(RepetitionRegion *)aRepetitionRegion;
method result
YES if the repetition region was trunated by the overlapping piece of another regioin, NO if trunkation was not possible.
