I'm looking for an efficient algorithm to do string tiling. Basically, you are given a list of strings, say BCD, CDE, ABC, A, and the resulting tiled string should be ABCDE, because BCD aligns with CDE yielding BCDE, which is then aligned with ABC yielding the final ABCDE. Currently, I'm using a slightly naïve algorithm, that works as f...

NB: Answers in pure C++ only. Th...
I want to replace the text in a string "Sin()" with the computed value for Math.Sin() where is...anything. My problem: The string can have more than one right parenthesis. Also, since it is performing mathematical operations, it would have to know how to do the innermost ones first. Obviously, there is not a built in method for comput...
