string_jaro_distance
Functions
- string_jaro_distance(first, second, first_length, second_length) ⇒
number Calculate Jaro distance between two strings, this is a measure of string similarity. Higher value means more similarity.
- getMatching(a1, a2, matches1, matches2) ⇒
number Find matching characters in both strings according to Jaro algorithm
- getTranspositions(a1, a2, matches1, matches2) ⇒
number Calculate the number of transpositions between the two words
