This solution constructs an inverted list representing a string pattern to be searched for. It then uses a new algorithm to process an input string in a single pass. The preprocessing phase takes 1) time complexity O(m) 2) space complexity O(1) where m is the length of pattern. The searching phase time complexity takes 1) O(m+α ) in average case 2) O(n/m) in the best case and 3) O(n) in the worst case, where α is the number of comparing leading to mismatch and n is the length of input text. %P 39 - 43
