Wikipedia

  1. Partial word

    In computer science and the study of combinatorics on words, a partial word is a string that may contain a number of "do not know" or "do not care" symbols i.e. placeholders in the string where the symbol value is not known or not specified. More formally, a partial word is a partial function u : { 0 , … , n − 1 } → A {\displaystyle u:\{0,\ldots ,n-1\}\rightarrow A} where A {\displaystyle A} is some finite alphabet. If u(k) is not defined for some k ∈ { 0 , … , n − 1 } {\displaystyle k\in \{0,\ldots ,n-1\}} then the unknown element at place k in the string is called a "hole". In regular expressions (following the POSIX standard) a hole is represented by the metacharacter ".". For example, aab.ab.b is a partial word of length 8 over the alphabet A ={a,b} in which the fourth and seventh characters are holes.
