between the expected and actual outputs when tests fail.

// A pair is a pair of values tracked for both the x and y side of a diff.

// Diff returns an anchored diff of the two texts old and new
// in the “unified diff” format. If old and new are identical,
// Diff returns a nil slice (no output).
//
// Unix diff implementations typically look for a diff with
// the smallest number of lines inserted and removed,
// which can in the worst case take time quadratic in the
// number of lines in the texts. As a result, many implementations
// either can be made to run for a long time or cut off the search
// after a predetermined amount of work.
//
// In contrast, this implementation looks for a diff with the
// smallest number of “unique” lines inserted and removed,
// where unique means a line that appears just once in both old and new.
// We call this an “anchored diff” because the unique lines anchor
// the chosen matching regions. An anchored diff is usually clearer
// than a standard diff, because the algorithm does not try to
// reuse unrelated blank lines or closing braces.
// The algorithm also guarantees to run in O(n log n) time
// instead of the standard O(n²) time.
//
// Some systems call this approach a “patience diff,” named for
// the “patience sorting” algorithm, itself named for a solitaire card game.
// We avoid that name for two reasons. First, the name has been used
// for a few different variants of the algorithm, so it is imprecise.
// Second, the name is frequently interpreted as meaning that you have
// to wait longer (to be patient) for the diff, meaning that it is a slower algorithm,
// when in fact the algorithm is faster than the standard one.
