Consider the first example.

If the foundation is the first 1 character 'p' and you repeat it enough
times you'll get 'pppppppppppppppp'.

This is the same length as the line.

Does it match the line? No.

OK.

If the foundation is the first 2 characters 'py' and you repeat it
enough times you'll get 'pypypypypypypypy'.

This is the same length as the line.

Does it match the line? No.

OK.

If the foundation is the first 3 characters 'py' and you repeat it
enough times you'll get 'pytpytpytpytpytpyt'.

This is longer than as the line, so truncate it to 'pytpytpytpytpytpy'.

Does it match the line? No.

OK.

Continue in this vein until you'll get a match. (The foundation might
in fact be the entire line.)
