Hey folks, This is my first post on the mailing list, I would like to introduce myself. I have been love with Lisp since I started reading SICP, the way you express problems and decompose them it's just amazing. I always wanted to build a real world application in Lisp but I never got around it (working in a startup leaves you with very little time).
Recently, I discovered talks by Rich Hickey (thanks to Baishampayan Ghose!) and I was very impressed. I decided to learn Clojure so I picked up "Joy of Clojure" and wrote a small library for fuzzy matching using Levenshtein distance. So I have an very early version of the fuzzy-matcher<https://github.com/Who828/fuzzy_matcher>, a library to fuzzily match strings in Clojure. Currently it has two APIs, - edit_distance which gives you Levenshtein distance between two strings. - search which takes a string and a list of strings, finally it gives you a list of strings which sorted by the edit_distance. I am planning to add more algorithms to this library like Sellers, Hamming, PairDistance etc. I just wanted feedback from you folks. I really want to help out the Clojure community by contributing back and learn lot of new things in the process. Please if you have any API suggestions or algorithms you want me to add, let me know. I would do my best to add that feature as soon as possible. Regards, Smit -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
