Let A = {a{sub}1,a{sub}2,...,a{sub}|A|} be the input data sequence alphabet, where the notation |A| stands for the cardinality of A. We will also use the notation |sequence_name| to denote the sequence length. For every integer n > 0, A{sup}n denotes the set of all sequences of length n from A. A sequence from A is sometimes called an A-sequence. For every integer n > 0, the A-sequence x{sub}1,x{sub}2,...,x{sub}n is denoted by x{sup}n.
