This can be solved using Levenshtein distance. The solution below uses a temp matrix [0...n][0...m]. This is usually not a good approach for handling large strings. Other approaches are via hash functions. package strings; /** * Implements the Lavenshtein algorithm to find the minimum number of edits * to change one string to another * … Read more
