Informally, an algorithm is a set of explicit instructions used to solve a problem (e.g. Euclid's algorithm for computing the greatest common divisor of two integers). For more specific questions on algorithms, this tag may be used in conjunction with the approximation-algorithms, algorithmic-randomness and algorithmic-topology tags.

Building optimal rewriting rules.

The trie data structure seems to be precisely the structure you are looking for. It is more efficient in terms of both space and time than providing a table of rewrite rules. There are quite a few ref …
