p5-String-Approx

Perl extension for approximate matching (fuzzy matching)

String::Approx lets you match and substitute strings approximately. With this you can emulate errors: typing errors, spelling errors, closely related vocabularies (colour color), genetic mutations (GAG ACT), abbreviations (McScot, MacScot). EXTREMELY USEFUL FOR WRITING LANGUAGE TESTS AND QUIZZES ! Jarkko Hietaniemi<jhi@alpha.hut.fi>
