Description
A folding record can be compared with an independently established sequence of step labels.
A folding record can be compared with an independently established sequence of step labels.1
Exact comparison catches both different labels and missing or extra steps.
When to use Folding Sequence Validator (tri-fold)
Use this tool to apply the stated folding sequence validator (tri-fold) operation with an explicit input and unit basis.
How to use Folding Sequence Validator (tri-fold) and how it works
- Establish the measurement basis and units described above.
- Enter actualObservedTriFoldStepLabels, callerIndependentQualifiedRequiredStepLabels and run the tool.
- Read result.exactQualifiedSequenceMatch, result.firstMismatchZeroBased using the output meanings below.
- If input is rejected, correct the stated type, range, ordering or alignment issue and rerun; review successful results under the declared convention.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| actualObservedTriFoldStepLabels | Observed tri fold step labels, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | array of string | required; dense; align related rows as specified; at most 128 strings; 128 UTF-16 units each; further conditions in the algorithm |
| callerIndependentQualifiedRequiredStepLabels | Qualified required step labels, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | array of string | required; dense; align related rows as specified; at most 128 strings; 128 UTF-16 units each; further conditions in the algorithm |
Require a nonempty reference sequence. Compare labels through the longer array and return the first unequal zero-based index; use −1 for a complete match.
match = no differing index; first mismatch = index or −1 Apply the declared units, ordering and branch conditions.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Object containing the declared output fields. | object |
| result.exactQualifiedSequenceMatch | True only when both step sequences match in labels and length. | boolean |
| result.firstMismatchZeroBased | First different index, including a length mismatch; −1 means complete match. | number |

}Limitations and assumptions
The output applies the declared operation to the values you supply. Establish the measurement basis, units, coefficients and any caller-selected rules before interpreting it. The tool does not independently collect or verify observations or decide whether a model or reference applies.
Supply explicit required fields with the documented types and dense aligned arrays. Unknown fields, wrong types and nonfinite numbers are rejected. Branch-specific constraints are explained above. A successful false boolean, negative signed difference, empty slice or unresolved tie is distinct from an input error. Very large inputs or outputs may be rejected by shared resource limits.
Alternative or Complementary methods

For a related operation, use Sewn Stripe Panel Cut List Generator. Sewn horizontal stripes may have unequal finished heights.
