/*
* This is a modification of the original Berghel-Roach edit
* distance (based on prior work by Ukkonen) described in
* ACM Transactions on Information Systems, Vol. 14, No. 1,
* January 1996, pages 94-106.
*
* I observed that only O(d) prior computations are required
* to compute edit distance. Rather than keeping all prior
* f(k,p) results in a matrix, we keep only the two "outer edges"
* in the triangular computation pattern that will be used in
* subsequent rounds. We cannot reconstruct the edit path,
* but many applications do not require that; for them, this
* modification uses less space (and empirically, slightly
* less time).
*
* First, some history behind the algorithm necessary to understand
* Berghel-Roach and our modification...
*
* The traditional algorithm for edit distance uses dynamic programming,
* building a matrix of distances for substrings:
* D[i,j] holds the distance for string1[0..i]=>string2[0..j].
* The matrix is initially populated with the trivial values
* D[0,j]=j and D[i,0]=i; and then expanded with the rule:
*
*
* Ukkonen observed that each diagonal of the matrix must increase
* by either 0 or 1 from row to row. If D[i,j] = p, then the
* matching rule requires that D[i+x,j+x] = p for all x
* where string1[i..i+x) matches string2[j..j+j+x). Ukkonen
* defined a function f(k,p) as the highest row number in which p
* appears on the k-th diagonal (those D[i,j] where k=(i-j), noting
* that k may be negative). The final result of the edit
* distance is the D[n,m] cell, on the (n-m) diagonal; it is
* the value of p for which f(n-m, p) = m. The function f can
* also be computed dynamically, according to a simple recursion:
*
* The max() expression finds a row where the k-th diagonal must
* contain p by virtue of an edit from the prior, same, or following
* diagonal (corresponding to an insert, substitute, or delete);
* we need not consider more distant diagonals because row-to-row
* and column-to-column changes are at most +/- 1.
*
* The original Ukkonen algorithm computed f(k,p) roughly as
* follows:
*
* for (p = 0; ; p++) {
* compute f(k,p) for all valid k
* if (f(n-m, p) == m) return p;
* }
*
*
* Berghel and Roach observed that many values of f(k,p) are
* computed unnecessarily, and reorganized the computation into
* a just-in-time sequence. In each iteration, we are primarily
* interested in the terminating value f(main,p), where main=(n-m)
* is the main diagonal. To compute that we need f(x,p-1) for
* three values of x: main-1, main, and main+1. Those depend on
* values for p-2, and so forth. We will already have computed
* f(main,p-1) in the prior round, and thus f(main-1,p-2) and
* f(main+1,p-2), and so forth. The only new values we need to compute
* are on the edges: f(main-i,p-i) and f(main+i,p-i). Noting that
* f(k,p) is only meaningful when abs(k) is no greater than p,
* one of the Berghel-Roach reviewers noted that we can compute
* the bounds for i:
*
* (main+i &le p-i) implies (i ≤ (p-main)/2)
*
* (where main+i is limited on the positive side) and similarly
*
* (-(main-i) &le p-i) implies (i ≤ (p+main)/2).
*
* (where main-i is limited on the negative side).
*
* This reduces the computation sequence to
*
* for (i = (p-main)/2; i > 0; i--) compute f(main+i,p-i);
* for (i = (p+main)/2; i > 0; i--) compute f(main-i,p-i);
* if (f(main, p) == m) return p;
*
*
* The original Berghel-Roach algorithm recorded prior values
* of f(k,p) in a matrix, using O(distance^2) space, enabling
* reconstruction of the edit path, but if all we want is the
* edit *distance*, we only need to keep O(distance) prior computations.
*
* The requisite prior k-1, k, and k+1 values are conveniently
* computed in the current round and the two preceding it.
* For example, on the higher-diagonal side, we compute:
*
* current[i] = f(main+i, p-i)
*
* We keep the two prior rounds of results, where p was one and two
* smaller. So, from the preceidng round
*
* last[i] = f(main+i, (p-1)-i)
*
* and from the prior round, but one position back:
*
* prior[i-1] = f(main+(i-1), (p-2)-(i-1))
*
* In the current round, one iteration earlier:
*
* current[i+1] = f(main+(i+1), p-(i+1))
*
* Note that the distance in all of these evaluates to p-i-1,
* and the diagonals are (main+i) and its neighbors... just
* what we need. The lower-diagonal side behaves similarly.
*
* We need to materialize values that are not computed in prior
* rounds, for either of two reasons:
*
Initially, we have no prior rounds, so we need to fill
* all of the "last" and "prior" values for use in the
* first round. The first round uses only on one side
* of the main diagonal or the other.
*
In every other round, we compute one more diagonal than before.
*
* In all of these cases, the missing f(k,p) values are for abs(k) > p,
* where a real value of f(k,p) is undefined. [The original Berghel-Roach
* algorithm prefills its F matrix with these values, but we fill
* them as we go, as needed.] We define
*
* f(-p-1,p) = p, so that we start diagonal -p with row p,
* f(p+1,p) = -1, so that we start diagonal p with row 0.
*
* (We also allow f(p+2,p)=f(-p-2,p)=-1, causing those values to
* have no effect in the starting row computation.]
*
* We only expand the set of diagonals visited every other round,
* when (p-main) or (p+main) is even. We keep track of even/oddness
* to save some arithmetic. The first round is always even, as p=abs(main).
* Note that we rename the "f" function to "computeRow" to be Googley.
