Something is wrong with the first sentence in the "Informally, the algorithm constructs a trie ..." paragraph -- some kind of copy-paste replacement error; haven't figured out exactly how to fix it yet. Looks like there isn't a clean version to go back to; the mismatched parenthetical expression hasn't changed since it was added (17:36, 27 July 2006). Anyone?

* Got rid of the obvious error, but may have introduced some subtle inaccuracy -- will have to study the algorithm some more to be sure. [[User:Dvgrn|dvgrn]] 20:40, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Line 78 ⟶ 80:

::::::# While it is easy for me to understand the meaning of words ''string "aaaaa" requires more space than "a"'', I cannot easily imagine a straightforward comparison of sizes of the same string "aaaaa" and of a [[tuple]] (1,1). Either the assumptions shall be listed or the comparison adjectives skipped.

::::::# Similarly, the generic meaning of ''quadratic'' describes a relationship between x and y of the form y = O(x*x). When declaring something to be quadratic, the text should identify not only y, but x also.

::::::# I am not an expert, but to the best of my knowledge AHAC algorithm is used primarily to find the threat patters in the network traffic. It does not appear to me that the "a", "aa", "aaa", ... is a typical dictionary for this application. I would like therefore to add something along the lines of "pathological" or "atypical" to the description of this example (this requires a [[WP:RS]], of course).
