I'm looking for an algorithm that will take two pieces of text as input and return some comparison of those texts, and how similar they are to one another. Ideally I would like it to return a number which would indicate the level of similarity, but I can probably work with just about anything.
Are there any good algorithms out there for doing this? Any help would be much appreciated. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create Web Applications With ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2. Build powerful, scalable RIAs.
