I have a csv file with nearly 200000 rows containing two columns- name & job. The user then inputs a name, say user_name, and I have to search the entire csv to find the names that contain the pattern user_name and finally print the output to screen. I have implemented this using ArrayList in Java where I put the entire names from csv to ArrayList and then searched for the pattern in it. But in that case the overall time complexity for searching is O(n). Is there any other data strucure in Java that I can use to perform the searching in o(logn) or something more efficient than ArrayList? I can't use any database approach by the way. Also if there is a good data structure in any other language that I can use to accomplish my goal, then kindly suggest it to me?
Edit- The output should be the names in the csv that contains the pattern user_name as the last part. Eg: If my input is "son", then it should return "jackson",etc. Now what I have done so far is read the name column of csv to a string ArrayList, then read each element of the ArrayList and using the regular expression (pattern-matcher of Java) to see if the element has the user_name as the last part. If yes, then print it. If I implement this in a multi-threaded environment, will it increase the scalability and performance of my program?
You can use:
TreeMap
, it is sorted red-black tree,Collected from the Internet
