Computes the normalized similarity of the prefixes of two strings, where the result is between 0.0 (completely different) and 1.0 (identical).

Usage

prefix_normalized_similarity(s1, s2, score_cutoff = 0)

Arguments

s1

A string. The first input string.

s2

A string. The second input string.

score_cutoff

An optional minimum threshold for the normalized similarity. Defaults to 0.0.

Value

The normalized prefix similarity as a double.

Examples

prefix_normalized_similarity("abcdef", "abcxyz")
#> [1] 0.5
prefix_normalized_similarity("abcdef", "abcxyz", score_cutoff = 0.7)
#> [1] 0
