Limit theorems (including a Berry‐Esseen bound) are derived for the number of comparisons taken by the Boyer‐Moore algorithm for finding the occurrences of a given pattern in a random text. Previously, only special variants of this algorithm have been analyzed. We also propose a means of computing the limiting constants for the mean and the variance. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
