Yesterday evening I was looking ways to find out quickly if a list of
string patterns match a list of strings or not. Outer came handy.
Here is a small example:
In[20]:=
lst={"actagagactagag","actagag","acta","gag"};
fragpatt={"*acta*","*tag*","*gag*"};
Outer[StringMatchQ[#1,#2]&,lst,fragpatt]
Out[22]=
{{True,True,True},{True,True,True},{True,False,False},{False,False,True}
}
The first sublist of the Out shows how the first element of lst
measured up to the elements of fragpatt, etc...
