Abstract

Herein for each source logic in a corpus, a computer stores an identifier of the source logic and operates a logic encoder that infers a distinct fixed-size encoded logic that represents the variable-size source logic. At build time, a multidimensional index is generated and populated based on the encoded logics that represent the source logics in the corpus. At runtime, a user may edit and select a new source logic such as in a text editor or an integrated development environment (IDE). The logic encoder infers a new encoded logic that represents the new source logic. The multidimensional index accepts the new encoded logic as a lookup key and automatically selects and returns a result subset of encoded logics that represent similar source logics in the corpus. For display, the multidimensional index may select and return only encoded logics that are the few nearest neighbors to the new encoded logic.
