wgt_jaccard_distance

#' <code>wgt_jaccard_distance</code> computes the Weighted Jaccard Distance between
two strings. It is vectorized, and accepts only two equal-length string
vectors.

Provides a flexible set of tools for matching two un-linked data sets.
'fedmatch' allows for three ways to match data: exact matches, fuzzy matches, and multi-variable matches.
It also allows an easy combination of these three matches via the tier matching function.
