+ * This class is not thread safe<br><br>
+ * (From wikipedia)
+ * In computer science, the Boyer–Moore–Horspool algorithm or Horspool's algorithm is an algorithm for finding
+ * substrings in strings. It was published by Nigel Horspool in 1980. <br>
+ * <a href=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer%E2%80%93Moore%E2%80%93Horspool_algorithm>Wikipedia page</a><br><br>
+ * <p>
+ * An explanation:<br>
+ * <p>
+ * The Horspool algorithm is a simplification of the Boyer-Moore algorithm in that it uses only one of the two heuristic
+ * methods for increasing the number of characters shifted when finding a bad match in the text. This method is usually
+ * called the "bad symbol" or "bad character" shift. The bad symbol shift method is classified as an input enhancement
+ * method in the theory of algorithms. Input enhancement is (from wikipedia) the principle that processing a given input
+ * to a problem and altering it in a specific way will increase runtime efficiency or space efficiency, or both. Both
+ * algorithms try to match the pattern and text comparing the pattern symbols to the text's from right to left.<br><br>
+ * <p>
+ * In the bad symbol shift method, a table is created prior to the search, called the "bad symbol table". The bad symbol
+ * table contains the shift values for any symbol in the text and pattern. For these symbols, the value is the length of
+ * the pattern, if the symbol is not in the first (length - 1) of the pattern. Else it is the distance from its
+ * rightmost occurrence in the pattern to the last symbol of the pattern. In practice, we only calculate the values for
+ * the ones that exist in the first (length - 1) of the pattern.<br><br>
+ * <p>
+ * For more details on the algorithm and the more advanced Boyer-Moore I recommend checking out the wikipedia page and
+ * professor Anany Levitin's book: Introduction To The Design And Analysis Of Algorithms.
