5`smetrics` is "string metrics".
6
7Package smetrics provides a bunch of algorithms for calculating the distance between strings.
8
9There are implementations for calculating the popular Levenshtein distance (aka Edit Distance or Wagner-Fischer), as well as the Jaro distance, the Jaro-Winkler distance, and more.
