Levenshtein Distance Algorithm: Fastest Implementation in C#

Image
Here is a cleaned-up performance test for several different implementations of levenshtein I have blogged about recently. This test was emailed to me by Ahmed Ghoneim, who has also kindly agreed to its publication on my blog. I am very grateful to him for his excellent contribution. I have slightly altered his file to do away with the unnecessary local variables in my C2C# port of the GNULevenshtein method. I would like to hear from you which methods perform best on your machine. Please drop a comment ^_^! LevenshteinAlgorithmPerformanceTest.cs code only Packages code, data and sample binary in zip and self-executable zip formats Please note that the GNULevenshtein method was found to be buggy! Here is the new replacement method .

Haskell and F#: Language Design

Image
After watching a taste of Haskell by Simon Peyton-Jones and having a look at A History of Haskell: being lazy with class , I am left with some open questions regarding the design of F#: Why is F# not lazy?: What is the advantage of eagerness? Is there a point in encapsulating side-effectful operations in monads while programming in F#? IO Monads etc.? #light // Sample F# IO Monad : OSCON Haskell Video Part 2 type IO<'a> = IO of 'a // get: unit -> IO<string> let get () = IO(read_line ()) // put: string -> IO<unit> let put x = IO(print_string x) // bind.e: IO<'a> -> 'a // bind: IO<'a> -> ('a -> IO<'b>) -> IO<'b> let bind (x:IO<'a>) (y:('a -> IO<'b>)) = let e (IO(a)) = a in y (e x) let (>>=) = bind // gp: unit -> IO<unit> let gp () = get () >>= put gp () Why did the F# team chose ML and OCaml over Haskell? I hope someone from the F# team...

Mono 1.2.5 binaries for Solaris 10/x86

I think I've finally managed to botch it all up. I created a JRE-style zipped package, which you can download here 1,2 at your own risk ;). Whoa, it's taken me 4 days just to get so far with mono/solaris. ^o^ I wanna sleep like the relakkuma now hehe... These binaries are compiled for 32-bit/x86 processors. They also run on 64-bit/x86-64 processors. They are not compiled for running winforms applications. To extract the archive use: "gtar -zxvf"
