CompareStrings()

DIFF(1,2)

PURPOSE

Using a process similar to the SNDX() function, this function will return a value that can be used to determine how close the two values sound.

PARTS

1 f/c/e

Required - Comparison value 1. Must be type A.

2 f/c/e

Required - Comparison value 2. Must be type A.

RETURN TYPE - I

The return value is from 0 through 4. 0 is no match at all; 4 is a very close match.

EXAMPLE

define x type i

x = DIFF('translate','trnslt')

// x = 4

x = DIFF('John','Paul')

// x = 0
