Abstract
Systems and methods may generate or modify a pattern, to search text, utilizing a hierarchical structure. The system and method may receive instructions for generating or modifying the pattern. The system and methods may identify or generate a hierarchical structure containing one or more levels each of which includes one or more objects that store values. The system and method may define a pattern by assigning values to the hierarchical structure when the instructions are for generating the pattern; or may modify one or more values in the hierarchical structure when the instructions are for modifying the pattern. The system and method may receive pattern matching instructions. The system and method may identify, based on the pattern matching instructions and utilizing the hierarchical structure, one or more portions of the program that includes the generated or modified pattern and implement one or more pattern matching functions to provide results.
