a vector of jaccard similarities of the strings

Arguments

a

the first character vector

b

the first character vector

ngram_width

the length of the shingles / ngrams used in the similarity calculation

nthread

Maximum number of threads to use. If NULL (default), Rayon's global thread pool is used, which typically uses all logical CPU cores available.
