# js-levenshtein [](https://travis-ci.org/gustf/js-levenshtein)
|
|
|
|
A very efficient JS implementation calculating the Levenshtein distance, i.e. the difference between two strings.
|
|
|
|
Based on Wagner-Fischer dynamic programming algorithm, optimized for speed and memory
|
|
- use a single distance vector instead of a matrix
|
|
- loop unrolling on the outer loop
|
|
- remove common prefixes/postfixes from the calculation
|
|
- minimize the number of comparisons
|
|
|
|
