# L-SEQ Research
This crate contains experimental implementations of the L-SEQ algorithm for research and comparison purposes.
## Structure
- `src/algorithms/original_paper_reference_impl.rs` - A direct, naive translation of the original L-SEQ paper
- `benches/` - Criterion benchmarks comparing different implementations
- `src/main.rs` - Simple demonstration of the original paper implementation
## Implementations
### Original Paper Reference Implementation
This is a direct translation of the L-SEQ algorithm from the original paper without optimizations. It's designed to be as close as possible to the pseudocode from the paper for verification and comparison purposes.
### Future Implementations
This crate is structured to allow adding more experimental implementations in the `src/algorithms/` directory to explore different tradeoffs and optimizations.
## Usage
Run the demo:
```bash
cargo run
```
Run benchmarks:
```bash
cargo bench
```
## Philosophy
This crate avoids abstraction layers and keeps each L-SEQ implementation as a concrete type with its own SortKey. Comparisons and compatibility testing are handled in the benchmarks rather than through trait abstractions.
Each implementation is self-contained and can be studied independently without needing to understand complex trait hierarchies or wrapper types.
