Analysis of the Code Type Hinting:
The use of type hints is generally good. However, list[str] and dict without explicit type definitions could lead to confusion. Using List and Dict from the typing module would be clearer and more consistent. State Representation:
The states in adlist are represented as dictionaries. This works but could be less efficient in terms of memory usage and performance compared to a dedicated class for state representation. Function Naming:
The function find_next_state does a lookup but could benefit from being renamed to reflect that it’s finding a state by character, e.g., find_state_by_character. Output Handling:
The output accumulation in the set_fail_transitions method uses list concatenation which can be inefficient. Instead, using extend() would be better for performance. Loop Conditions:
The loop conditions that involve checking for None states are repetitive. This could be refactored to simplify the logic. Docstring:
The docstring for the search_in method could be enhanced to explain the output format in more detail. Main Check:
The if name == "main": section is good, but it might be beneficial to add a simple example or usage guide for clarity.
