First solution in Uncategorized category for Fuzzy String Matching by arun_maiti
def fuzzy_string_match(str1: str, str2: str, threshold: int) -> bool:
for i in range(max(len(str1), len(str2))):
try:
if str1[i] != str2[i]: threshold -= 1
except IndexError:
threshold -= 1
return threshold >= 0
print("Example:")
print(fuzzy_string_match("apple", "appel", 2))
# These "asserts" are used for self-checking
assert fuzzy_string_match("apple", "appel", 2) == True
assert fuzzy_string_match("apple", "bpple", 1) == True
assert fuzzy_string_match("apple", "bpple", 0) == False
assert fuzzy_string_match("apple", "apples", 1) == True
assert fuzzy_string_match("apple", "bpples", 2) == True
assert fuzzy_string_match("apple", "apxle", 1) == True
assert fuzzy_string_match("apple", "pxxli", 3) == False
