Hello, It's just a strange coincidence that someone posted just very recently a question about matching. I know there are several match function in the base package (such as match, pmatch, charmatch, and the gsub etc) but I can't seem to use them wisely to be able to get what I need. suppose I have the following strings: "tets" "estt" "rtes7" "gstes" "tes5t"
Is there an R procedure to determine how related each string is to the reference string "test", for example to say that "tets" is similar to "test" with a probability of 0.9 or something of that sort? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Similarity-matching-with-probabilities-tp18153826p18153826.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
