A utility library for comparing strings via the Levenshtein Distance algorithm

Installation

dotnet add package Soenneker.Utils.Strings.LevenshteinDistance

Why Levenshtein Distance?

Levenshtein Distance, also known as Edit Distance, is a widely used metric for measuring the similarity between two strings. It calculates the minimum number of operations required to transform one string into the other, where operations include:

  • Insertion of a character.
  • Deletion of a character.
  • Substitution of a character.

Levenshtein Distance is particularly useful in applications like:

Flexible String Comparison:

It handles strings of unequal length and allows for more flexible comparisons.

Real-World Scenarios:

It's well-suited for tasks like:

  • Fuzzy string matching.
  • Spelling correction.
  • DNA sequence analysis.
  • Natural language processing.

Position-Aware:

It captures positional changes and structural differences more effectively than set-based metrics like Jaccard or Hamming Distance.

Comprehensive Error Handling:

Unlike simpler metrics, it accounts for insertions and deletions, making it robust for strings with typos or omissions.


Usage

var text1 = "kitten";
var text2 = "sitting";

int distance = LevenshteinDistanceUtil.ComputeDistance(text1, text2); // 3
double similarityPercentage = LevenshteinDistanceUtil.CalculatePercentage(text1, text2); // ~57.14

This library is efficient, straightforward, and ideal for handling real-world string similarity comparisons where flexibility and accuracy are key.
