    # == Synopsis
    #   require 'diff/lcs'
    #
    #   seq1 = %w(a b c e h j l m n p)
    #   seq2 = %w(b c d e f j k l m r s t)
    #
    #   lcs = Diff::LCS.LCS(seq1, seq2)
    #   diffs = Diff::LCS.diff(seq1, seq2)
    #   sdiff = Diff::LCS.sdiff(seq1, seq2)
    #   seq = Diff::LCS.traverse_sequences(seq1, seq2, callback_obj)
    #   bal = Diff::LCS.traverse_balanced(seq1, seq2, callback_obj)
    #   seq2 == Diff::LCS.patch(seq1, diffs)
    #   seq2 == Diff::LCS.patch!(seq1, diffs)
    #   seq1 == Diff::LCS.unpatch(seq2, diffs)
    #   seq1 == Diff::LCS.unpatch!(seq2, diffs)
    #   seq2 == Diff::LCS.patch(seq1, sdiff)
    #   seq2 == Diff::LCS.patch!(seq1, sdiff)
    #   seq1 == Diff::LCS.unpatch(seq2, sdiff)
    #   seq1 == Diff::LCS.unpatch!(seq2, sdiff)
    #
    # Alternatively, objects can be extended with Diff::LCS:
    #
    #   seq1.extend(Diff::LCS)
    #   lcs = seq1.lcs(seq2)
    #   diffs = seq1.diff(seq2)
    #   sdiff = seq1.sdiff(seq2)
    #   seq = seq1.traverse_sequences(seq2, callback_obj)
    #   bal = seq1.traverse_balanced(seq2, callback_obj)
    #   seq2 == seq1.patch(diffs)
    #   seq2 == seq1.patch!(diffs)
    #   seq1 == seq2.unpatch(diffs)
    #   seq1 == seq2.unpatch!(diffs)
    #   seq2 == seq1.patch(sdiff)
    #   seq2 == seq1.patch!(sdiff)
    #   seq1 == seq2.unpatch(sdiff)
    #   seq1 == seq2.unpatch!(sdiff)
    # 
    # Default extensions are provided for Array and String objects through
    # the use of 'diff/lcs/array' and 'diff/lcs/string'.

    # == Introduction (by Mark-Jason Dominus)
    # 
    # <em>The following text is from the Perl documentation. The only
    # changes have been to make the text appear better in Rdoc</em>.
    #
    # I once read an article written by the authors of +diff+; they said
    # that they hard worked very hard on the algorithm until they found the
    # right one.
    #
    # I think what they ended up using (and I hope someone will correct me,
    # because I am not very confident about this) was the `longest common
    # subsequence' method. In the LCS problem, you have two sequences of
    # items:
    #
    #    a b c d f g h j q z
    #    a b c d e f g i j k r x y z
    #
    # and you want to find the longest sequence of items that is present in
    # both original sequences in the same order. That is, you want to find a
    # new sequence *S* which can be obtained from the first sequence by
    # deleting some items, and from the second sequence by deleting other
    # items. You also want *S* to be as long as possible. In this case *S*
    # is:
    # 
    #    a b c d f g j z
    #
    # From there it's only a small step to get diff-like output:
    #
    #    e   h i   k   q r x y
    #    +   - +   +   - + + +
    #
    # This module solves the LCS problem. It also includes a canned function
    # to generate +diff+-like output.
    #
    # It might seem from the example above that the LCS of two sequences is
    # always pretty obvious, but that's not always the case, especially when
    # the two sequences have many repeated elements. For example, consider
    #
    #    a x b y c z p d q
    #    a b c a x b y c z
    #
    # A naive approach might start by matching up the +a+ and +b+ that
    # appear at the beginning of each sequence, like this:
    # 
    #    a x b y c         z p d q
    #    a   b   c a b y c z
    #
    # This finds the common subsequence +a b c z+. But actually, the LCS is
    # +a x b y c z+:
    #
    #          a x b y c z p d q
    #    a b c a x b y c z

      # If there are two arrows (+a+ and +b+) pointing to elements of
      # sequences +A+ and +B+, the arrows will initially point to the first
      # elements of their respective sequences. #traverse_sequences will
      # advance the arrows through the sequences one element at a time,
      # calling a method on the user-specified callback object before each
      # advance. It will advance the arrows in such a way that if there are
      # elements <tt>A[ii]</tt> and <tt>B[jj]</tt> which are both equal and
      # part of the longest common subsequence, there will be some moment
      # during the execution of #traverse_sequences when arrow +a+ is pointing
      # to <tt>A[ii]</tt> and arrow +b+ is pointing to <tt>B[jj]</tt>. When
      # this happens, #traverse_sequences will call <tt>callbacks#match</tt>
      # and then it will advance both arrows.
      #
      # Otherwise, one of the arrows is pointing to an element of its sequence
      # that is not part of the longest common subsequence.
      # #traverse_sequences will advance that arrow and will call
      # <tt>callbacks#discard_a</tt> or <tt>callbacks#discard_b</tt>, depending
      # on which arrow it advanced. If both arrows point to elements that are
      # not part of the longest common subsequence, then #traverse_sequences
      # will advance one of them and call the appropriate callback, but it is
      # not specified which it will call.
      #
      # The methods for <tt>callbacks#match</tt>, <tt>callbacks#discard_a</tt>,
      # and <tt>callbacks#discard_b</tt> are invoked with an event comprising
      # the action ("=", "+", or "-", respectively), the indicies +ii+ and
      # +jj+, and the elements <tt>A[ii]</tt> and <tt>B[jj]</tt>. Return
      # values are discarded by #traverse_sequences.
      #
      # === End of Sequences
      # If arrow +a+ reaches the end of its sequence before arrow +b+ does,
      # #traverse_sequence try to call <tt>callbacks#finished_a</tt> with the
      # last index and element of +A+ (<tt>A[-1]</tt>) and the current index
      # and element of +B+ (<tt>B[jj]</tt>). If <tt>callbacks#finished_a</tt>
      # does not exist, then <tt>callbacks#discard_b</tt> will be called on
      # each element of +B+ until the end of the sequence is reached (the call
      # will be done with <tt>A[-1]</tt> and <tt>B[jj]</tt> for each element).
      #
      # If +b+ reaches the end of +B+ before +a+ reaches the end of +A+,
      # <tt>callbacks#finished_b</tt> will be called with the current index
      # and element of +A+ (<tt>A[ii]</tt>) and the last index and element of
      # +B+ (<tt>A[-1]</tt>). Again, if <tt>callbacks#finished_b</tt> does not
      # exist on the callback object, then <tt>callbacks#discard_a</tt> will
      # be called on each element of +A+ until the end of the sequence is
      # reached (<tt>A[ii]</tt> and <tt>B[-1]</tt>).
      #
      # There is a chance that one additional <tt>callbacks#discard_a</tt> or

      #
      # === Matches
      # If there are two arrows (+a+ and +b+) pointing to elements of
      # sequences +A+ and +B+, the arrows will initially point to the first
      # elements of their respective sequences. #traverse_sequences will
      # advance the arrows through the sequences one element at a time,
      # calling a method on the user-specified callback object before each
      # advance. It will advance the arrows in such a way that if there are
      # elements <tt>A[ii]</tt> and <tt>B[jj]</tt> which are both equal and
      # part of the longest common subsequence, there will be some moment
      # during the execution of #traverse_sequences when arrow +a+ is pointing
      # to <tt>A[ii]</tt> and arrow +b+ is pointing to <tt>B[jj]</tt>. When
      # this happens, #traverse_sequences will call <tt>callbacks#match</tt>
      # and then it will advance both arrows.
      #
      # === Discards
      # Otherwise, one of the arrows is pointing to an element of its sequence
      # that is not part of the longest common subsequence.
      # #traverse_sequences will advance that arrow and will call
      # <tt>callbacks#discard_a</tt> or <tt>callbacks#discard_b</tt>,
      # depending on which arrow it advanced.
      #
      # === Changes
      # If both +a+ and +b+ point to elements that are not part of the longest
      # common subsequence, then #traverse_sequences will try to call
      # <tt>callbacks#change</tt> and advance both arrows. If
      # <tt>callbacks#change</tt> is not implemented, then
      # <tt>callbacks#discard_a</tt> and <tt>callbacks#discard_b</tt> will be
      # called in turn.
      #
      # The methods for <tt>callbacks#match</tt>, <tt>callbacks#discard_a</tt>,
      # <tt>callbacks#discard_b</tt>, and <tt>callbacks#change</tt> are
      # invoked with an event comprising the action ("=", "+", "-", or "!",
      # respectively), the indicies +ii+ and +jj+, and the elements
      # <tt>A[ii]</tt> and <tt>B[jj]</tt>. Return values are discarded by
      # #traverse_balanced.
      #
      # === Context
      # Note that +ii+ and +jj+ may not be the same index position, even if
      # +a+ and +b+ are considered to be pointing to matching or changed
