[Newbies] SoundsLike package released on SqueakSource

[Ron Teitelbaum]

Hello all,

 

I have released a new package on SqueakSource that contains SoundEx and
DoubleMetaphone.  

 

http://www.squeaksource.com/SoundsLike.html 

 

This package adds soundsLike: to string

 

'titlebalm' soundsLike: 'teitelbaum'

 

You can also get the phenoticStringsFor: a word to store in a database for
later queries.  

 

PhoneticStringComparator defaultClass "SoundEx" new phoneticStringsFor:
'titlebalm' #('T341')

 

DoubleMetaphoneStringComparator new phoneticStringsFor: 'teitelbaum'
#('TTLPM' 'TTLPM')

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

 

Regards,

 

Ron Teitelbaum

No rush...I am working on a custom recipe program for my wife and wanted to
use it to search ingredients and still find something that was misspelled!

Thanks,

Rob

I did one but didn't release it anywhere.  I did metaphone and double
metaphone.

 

Maybe I can dig it up.  When did you need it?

Does anyone know of a SoundEx algorithm in Squeak before I go write one
myself?

Never hurts to ask!
