Hi,

I am looking for some software to do the following, and wonder whether
Mathematica will enable me too do this, or whether there is a
cheaper/simpler solution available?


I have several sets of numbers, e.g. :

set 1 :  5, 4, 12, 15, 19, 15, 16, 19, 18, 21, 3, ....
set 2 :  1, 7, 4, 9, 22, 83, 17, 61, 1, 73, 15, 16, 19, ...
set 3 : 7, 93, 14, 73, 14, 25, 82, 21, 12, 17, ...
and so on...

and I am looking for some software which can read through the numbers
and find "blocks" of duplicated patterns between the different sets,
for example, if I ran it through the above sets, it would point out
"15, 16, 19" in set 1 and set 2.

Or if anyone can recommend another newgroup / website / forum where I
may be able to find an answer, that would also be much appreciated.


Thanks, Mark
