This is a pure Python implementation of Dynamic Programming solution to the edit
distance problem.
2016-10-12 14:48:37 +00:00
The problem is :
Given two strings A and B. Find the minimum number of operations to string B such that
A = B. The permitted operations are removal, insertion, and substitution.
