#libstrcmp

libstrcmp is a library dedicated to fast C implementations of various string distance metrics and phonetic metrics. The metrics provided in libstrcmp are useful in fuzzy-string matching as well as natural-language processing.

##Algorithms

Algorithms that are currently implemented or plan to be implemented are split into two sections, String Distance Metics and Phonetic Algorithms:

###String Distance Metrics

1. Hamming Distance
2. Levenshtein Distance
3. Damerau-Levenshtein Distance
4. Jaro Distance
5. Jaro-Winkler Distance
6. Optimal String Alignment Distance
7. Sift3 and Sift3B Distance

###Phonetic Algorithms

1. Soundex
2. Refined Soundex
