About
Create your own search engine! It probably won’t compete with Google: yours will be a simple version which processes some data and searches it for a word or a phrase. Simple but cool.
Training project
This project allows you to practice and strengthen your coding skills, helping you get ready for more advanced tasks ahead.
What you'll learn
Once you choose a project, we'll provide you with a study plan that includes all the necessary topics from your course to get it built. Here’s what awaits you:
Set two strings (where to search and what to search) for the program to return an index of the searched word or report “not found”
With the help of arrays and linear search, add more strings to the program and search for specific data from that input.
Using switch operator and methods, create a user menu for your search engine
Enable your search engine to search for data stored in the files
Working with lists and maps, build the inverted index to enhance your search
Get familiar with patterns and learn to deal with more complex types of search
