Can anyone suggest a simple/easy way to count how many characters have changed in a string?
E.g. giving results as follows:- abcdefg abcdefh 1 abcdefg abcdekk 2 abcdefg gfedcba 6 Note that position is significant, a character in a different position should not count as a match. Is there any simpler/neater way than just a for loop running through both strings and counting non-matching characters? -- Chris Green -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
