pylev3 1.0.0

# pylev3
[](https://travis-ci.org/hell03end/pylev)

A Python3 Levenshtein distance (re)implementation of [pylev](https://github.com/toastdriven/pylev) (fork).

Calculation of Levenshtein distance between strings.
Based on the [Wikipedia code samples](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance).

### Requirements
* Python Python 3.3+
* PyPy3

### Installation
```bash
pip install pylev3
```

### Usage
Usage is fairly straightforward:

```python
from pylev import Levenshtein

assert Levenshtein.classic('', 'cat'), 3
assert Levenshtein.damerau('cat', 'cat'), 0
assert Levenshtein.wf('kitten', 'sitting'), 3
assert Levenshtein.wfi(['cat', 'kitten'], 'abc'), [3, 6]
assert Levenshtein()(['cat', 'kitten'], ['cat', 'abc']), [[0, 3], [5, 6]]
```

Or use old way (like in pylev):
```python
from pylev import (
wf_levenshtein, wfi_levenshtein, damerau_levenshtein,
classic_levenshtein
)

assert classic_levenshtein('', 'cat'), 3
assert damerau_levenshtein('cat', 'cat'), 0
assert wf_levenshtein('kitten', 'sitting'), 3
assert wfi_levenshtein(['cat', 'kitten'], 'abc'), [3, 6]
assert wf_levenshtein(['cat', 'kitten'], ['cat', 'abc']), [[0, 3], [5, 6]]
```

### License
New BSD (as authored, no changes :( ).

### Tests
```bash
# get
$ git clone https://github.com/hell03end/pylev.git
$ cd pylev
# run
$ python -m unittest tests
```

### ToDo
* [ ] add extension for distance calculation on `c/c++` (preferably `c`)
* [ ] update tests & benchmarks
