I am struggling with dafny syntax.
searchAndReplace
receives three arrays of chars. Let's imagine line
is [s][n][a][k][e]
; pat
is [n][a]
and dst is [h][i]
. I want to search for all the occurrences of pat
in line
and replace it with dst
resulting in [s][h][i][k][e]
Method find
will return the indice of the first letter in line
that is equal to pat
.
Method delete
will remove pat
from line
at the variable at
returned at find
, and move all the others elements after at+p
to the left in order to fill the null spaces.
Method insert
will make space in order to dst
be added to line
at at
by moving all the characters between at
and at + p
p
positions to the right.
I created an auxiliar function which will compare pat
and dst
in order to verify that they aren't equal(if they were it would be replacing infinitely time dst
in line
in case pat
existed in line
)
For now i'm receiving the error "then expected
" on the following section of code inside function checkIfEqual
:
if(pat.Length != dst.Length) {
return false;
}
