This is an academic exercise to show how simple a search engine can be. The original inspiration for this was Jean Adams' Castilleja Programming Think-Tank, which aims to expose new programmers to the power of computing. Perhaps this minimal "search engine" can serve as a jumping-off point for student projects? Usage: 1. Construct a forward index: $ ./forwardindex.py ./test/ > fi.dat 2. Construct an inverted index: $ ./reverseindex.py < fi.dat > ri.dat 3. Run some queries $ ./query.py ri.dat fourscore and seven vmware woozle fraternité FRATERNITE 인간은 ^D fourscore and seven test/a vmware test/subdir/1 test/b woozle fraternité test/c FRATERNITE test/c 인간은 test/d There is no ranking, nor much life-support for ranking to be found here. Again, this is a pedagogical exercise to show how easy it can be to construct something that is recognizable as a search engine.
