A Levenshtein implementation with a premissive license. Intended to be a semi-dropin replacement for pylev and to be faster by leveraging a C extension.
- C compiler
- Only tested with Python 2.7
Simple example.:
import pylev2 distance = pylev2.levenshtein('kittens', 'sitting') assert(distance, 3)
Replace all instances of pylev with pylev2, please note that pylev2 does not support the functions with spelling errors or the classic version.
Setup:
$ virtualenv .env $ .env/bin/pip install git+https://github.com/JohnDoee/pylev2.git
Running:
$ python -m unittest pylev2.tests
