LAPD v1.0 (May 2002)
written by: Andrew Roberts

Instructions
------------

LAPD was implemented in Java.  There are five files included:

- lapd.java
- Document.java
- Trigam.java
- CompareTrigrams.java
- DocCompare.java

These need to be compiled using 'javac'.

Once all the .class files are available, program usage is as follows:

 java lapd <text_file1> <text_file2>


The two inputted textfiles are expected to be preprocessed:
 - only one sentence per line
 - all upper case characters converted to lower case
 - punctuaion removed

There are six sample files included, fileA to fileF, as used in the 
report accompanying the software, that have been processed accordingly.

LAPD will then proceed to analyse the text files and output a variety
of statistics for the user to view.  If LAPD believes there is cause
for concern and there is evidence of plagiarism, a message to this
effect will be presented to the user.  It is then up to the user to 
investigate the matter further.
