"""
SequenceMatcher is a flexible class for comparing pairs of sequences of
any type, so long as the sequence elements are hashable. The basic
algorithm predates, and is a little fancier than, an algorithm
published in the late 1980's by Ratcliff and Obershelp under the
hyperbolic name "gestalt pattern matching". The basic idea is to find
the longest contiguous matching subsequence that contains no "junk"
elements (R-O doesn't address junk). The same idea is then applied
recursively to the pieces of the sequences to the left and to the right
of the matching subsequence. This does not yield minimal edit
sequences, but does tend to yield matches that "look right" to people.
SequenceMatcher tries to compute a "human-friendly diff" between two
sequences. Unlike e.g. UNIX(tm) diff, the fundamental notion is the
longest *contiguous* & junk-free matching subsequence. That's what
catches peoples' eyes. The Windows(tm) windiff has another interesting
notion, pairing up elements that appear uniquely in each sequence.
That, and the method here, appear to yield more intuitive difference
reports than does diff. This method appears to be the least vulnerable
to synching up on blocks of "junk lines", though (like blank lines in
ordinary text files, or maybe "<P>" lines in HTML files). That may be
because this is the only method of the 3 that has a *concept* of
"junk" <wink>.
Example, comparing two strings, and considering blanks to be "junk":
>>> s = SequenceMatcher(lambda x: x == " ",
... "private Thread currentThread;",
... "private volatile Thread currentThread;")
>>>
.ratio() returns a float in [0, 1], measuring the "similarity" of the
sequences. As a rule of thumb, a .ratio() value over 0.6 means the
sequences are close matches:
>>> print round(s.ratio(), 3)
0.866
>>>
If you're only interested in where the sequences match,
.get_matching_blocks() is handy:
>>> for block in s.get_matching_blocks():
... print "a[%d] and b[%d] match for %d elements" % block
a[0] and b[0] match for 8 elements
a[8] and b[17] match for 6 elements
a[14] and b[23] match for 15 elements
a[29] and b[38] match for 0 elements
Note that the last tuple returned by .get_matching_blocks() is always a
dummy, (len(a), len(b), 0), and this is the only case in which the last
tuple element (number of elements matched) is 0.
If you want to know how to change the first sequence into the second,
use .get_opcodes():
>>> for opcode in s.get_opcodes():
... print "%6s a[%d:%d] b[%d:%d]" % opcode
equal a[0:8] b[0:8]
insert a[8:8] b[8:17]
equal a[8:14] b[17:23]
equal a[14:29] b[23:38]
See the Differ class for a fancy human-friendly file differencer, which
uses SequenceMatcher both to compare sequences of lines, and to compare
sequences of characters within similar (near-matching) lines.
See also function get_close_matches() in this module, which shows how
simple code building on SequenceMatcher can be used to do useful work.
Timing: Basic R-O is cubic time worst case and quadratic time expected
case. SequenceMatcher is quadratic time for the worst case and has
expected-case behavior dependent in a complicated way on how many
elements the sequences have in common; best case time is linear.

class Differ:
r"""
Differ is a class for comparing sequences of lines of text, and
producing human-readable differences or deltas. Differ uses
SequenceMatcher both to compare sequences of lines, and to compare
sequences of characters within similar (near-matching) lines.
Each line of a Differ delta begins with a two-letter code:
'- ' line unique to sequence 1
'+ ' line unique to sequence 2
' ' line common to both sequences
'? ' line not present in either input sequence
Lines beginning with '? ' attempt to guide the eye to intraline
differences, and were not present in either input sequence. These lines
can be confusing if the sequences contain tab characters.
Note that Differ makes no claim to produce a *minimal* diff. To the
contrary, minimal diffs are often counter-intuitive, because they synch
up anywhere possible, sometimes accidental matches 100 pages apart.
Restricting synch points to contiguous matches preserves some notion of
locality, at the occasional cost of producing a longer diff.
Example: Comparing two texts.
First we set up the texts, sequences of individual single-line strings
ending with newlines (such sequences can also be obtained from the
`readlines()` method of file-like objects):
>>> text1 = ''' 1. Beautiful is better than ugly.
... 2. Explicit is better than implicit.
... 3. Simple is better than complex.
... 4. Complex is better than complicated.
... '''.splitlines(1)
>>> len(text1)
4
>>> text1[0][-1]
'\n'
>>> text2 = ''' 1. Beautiful is better than ugly.
... 3. Simple is better than complex.
... 4. Complicated is better than complex.
... 5. Flat is better than nested.
... '''.splitlines(1)
Next we instantiate a Differ object:
>>> d = Differ()
Note that when instantiating a Differ object we may pass functions to
filter out line and character 'junk'. See Differ.__init__ for details.
Finally, we compare the two:
>>> result = list(d.compare(text1, text2))
'result' is a list of strings, so let's pretty-print it:
>>> from pprint import pprint as _pprint
>>> _pprint(result)
[' 1. Beautiful is better than ugly.\n',
'- 2. Explicit is better than implicit.\n',
'- 3. Simple is better than complex.\n',
'+ 3. Simple is better than complex.\n',
'? ++\n',
'- 4. Complex is better than complicated.\n',
'? ^ ---- ^\n',
'+ 4. Complicated is better than complex.\n',
'? ++++ ^ ^\n',
'+ 5. Flat is better than nested.\n']
As a single multi-line string it looks like this:
>>> print ''.join(result),
1. Beautiful is better than ugly.
- 2. Explicit is better than implicit.
- 3. Simple is better than complex.
+ 3. Simple is better than complex.
? ++
- 4. Complex is better than complicated.
? ^ ---- ^
+ 4. Complicated is better than complex.
? ++++ ^ ^

def compare(self, a, b):
r"""
Compare two sequences of lines; generate the resulting delta.
Each sequence must contain individual single-line strings ending with
newlines. Such sequences can be obtained from the `readlines()` method
of file-like objects. The delta generated also consists of newline-
terminated strings, ready to be printed as-is via the writeline()
method of a file-like object.
Example:
>>> print ''.join(Differ().compare('one\ntwo\nthree\n'.splitlines(1),
... 'ore\ntree\nemu\n'.splitlines(1))),

# before: private Thread currentThread;
# after: private volatile Thread currentThread;
# If you consider whitespace to be junk, the longest contiguous match
# not starting with junk is "e Thread currentThread". So ndiff reported
# that "e volatil" was inserted between the 't' and the 'e' in "private".
# While an accurate view, to people that's absurd. The current version
# looks for matching blocks that are entirely junk-free, then extends the
# longest one of those as far as possible but only with matching junk.
# So now "currentThread" is matched, then extended to suck up the
# preceding blank; then "private" is matched, and extended to suck up the
# following blank; then "Thread" is matched; and finally ndiff reports
# that "volatile " was inserted before "Thread". The only quibble
# remaining is that perhaps it was really the case that " volatile"
# was inserted after "private". I can live with that <wink>.

Compare `a` and `b` (lists of strings); return a `Differ`-style delta.
Optional keyword parameters `linejunk` and `charjunk` are for filter
functions (or None):
- linejunk: A function that should accept a single string argument, and
return true iff the string is junk. The default is module-level function
IS_LINE_JUNK, which filters out lines without visible characters, except
for at most one splat ('#').
- charjunk: A function that should accept a string of length 1. The
default is module-level function IS_CHARACTER_JUNK, which filters out
whitespace characters (a blank or tab; note: bad idea to include newline
in this!).
Tools/scripts/ndiff.py is a command-line front-end to this function.
Example:
>>> diff = ndiff('one\ntwo\nthree\n'.splitlines(1),
... 'ore\ntree\nemu\n'.splitlines(1))
>>> print ''.join(diff),
