Hi, 2012/5/18 Michael Schneider <schneid@fzi.de> > Try this Wikipedia page instead: > > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**Lexicographical_order<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographical_order> > > > > A mapping of integers to words based on their lexicographical order is only universal for a fixed set of words. The criteria that the OP offers, if I understand them correctly, neither seem to be intrinsic and exact properties of words, but circumstantial properties. For a universal mapping, given words formed out of 26 characters, I would go for a base 26 numeration system approach. Of course, no word semantics in the mapping. -- Enrique Pérez Arnaud enriquepablo@gmail.com http://npl.readthedocs.orgReceived on Friday, 18 May 2012 14:54:51 UTC
