stringdist (version 0.7.2)
Approximate string matching and string distance functions.
Description
Implements an approximate string matching version of R's native
'match' function. Can calculate various string distances based on edits
(damerau-levenshtein, hamming, levenshtein, optimal sting alignment),
qgrams (q-gram, cosine, jaccard distance) or heuristic metrics (jaro,
jaro-winkler).
