java.lang.Objectorg.apache.commons.codec.language.RefinedSoundex
Encodes a string into a Refined Soundex value. A refined soundex code is optimized for spell checking words. Soundex method originally developed by Margaret Odell and Robert Russell.
| Field Summary | |
private char[] |
soundexMapping
Every letter of the alphabet is "mapped" to a numerical value. |
static RefinedSoundex |
US_ENGLISH
This static variable contains an instance of the RefinedSoundex using the US_ENGLISH mapping. |
static char[] |
US_ENGLISH_MAPPING
RefinedSoundex is *refined* for a number of reasons one being that the mappings have been altered. |
| Constructor Summary | |
RefinedSoundex()
Creates an instance of the RefinedSoundex object using the default US English mapping. |
|
RefinedSoundex(char[] mapping)
Creates a refined soundex instance using a custom mapping. |
|
| Method Summary | |
