partial_match

Partial string compare

You are now following this Submission

Given two sets of words, this function finds whether (and where) the words of the first set are present in the second set.
The special power of this function is that it also works with "shifted matches" and "partial matchs". For example, if one is looking for the word SIMULINK but types SIMLINK or IMULINK, the function finds the match anyway.
Moreover, one can set an arbitrary percentual tolerance. With a low tolerance, even by typing SULIK the function recognizes that the searched expression is actually SIMULINK.
