Description:
I have a large dictionary (70,000) terms in the key format. I want to generate
output that lists every term from the dictionary that was found in a file. It
should ignore case (so even if the dict terms are uppercase and the file
contains the lowercase version, the output will list the version found in the
dictionary).
Input Sample:
Reversible mental depression
progressing to catatonia; visual
disturbances; hallucinations; an
acute reversible syndrome
characterized by disorientation for
time and place, short-term memory
loss, emotional lability, slightly
clouded sensorium, and decreased
performance on neuropsychometrics.
Output Sample:
Depression
Hallucinations
Memory Loss
