如何在Python中的文本文件中计算非常长的字符串中最长的重复字符序列答案

【问题标题】：How to count longest sequence of recurring characters in very long string inside text file in Python如何在Python中的文本文件中计算非常长的字符串中最长的重复字符序列

【问题描述】：

您好，我的问题是如何计算很长字符串中最长的AGATC 序列（意思是AGATCAGATC是两个序列）。

我需要使用 python。我现在的代码如下所示：

pattern = re.compile(r'AGATC')
matches = pattern.finditer(text_to_search)
for match in matches:
    agatc += 1

print(agatc)

将打印数字 28，但我知道 22 是正确答案。

【问题讨论】：

你怎么知道 22 是正确的答案？
“CS50”和“PSET6”都不是通用的编程术语，它们不足以描述您的问题。特别是，哈佛的 CS50每年都有不同的练习，2018 和 2019 中的 PSET6 都不涉及在 DNA 中寻找 STR。
@LukášSmetana 命名不是（主要）问题。问题是，没有人不是巧合地学习与您完全相同的课程，可以充分详细地理解您的问题以提供帮助。
@KonradRudolph 你好，我重写了这个问题。你能看看>?

【解决方案1】：

您的代码搜索并计算子字符串 'AGATC' 的所有实例。但是，您希望找到AGATC 的最长连续重复实例序列。

比较以下字符串的预期结果和实际结果（为了清楚起见，我添加了空格）：

AGATC TTT AGATC AGATC

您的代码将产生答案“3”——而预期的答案是“2”，因为 'AGATC's 的最长重复是 2。

解决问题的方法有多种。如果要使用正则表达式，可以搜索不重叠的重复：

pattern = re.compile(r'(AGATC)+')

这样，每个match 将包含整个重复匹配。您可以通过从每个匹配项的start() 中减去每个匹配项的end() 来找到最长的匹配项。要获得重复次数，请将匹配的长度除以 STR 的长度（即len('AGATC')）。

非常感谢@KonradRudolph，我能够立即解决并完成练习！
