Soundex is, well, Soundex, a method to find word with similar phonemes. Refined Sounder, OTOH, is more geared towards spellchecking. For example: new Soundex().encode("testing") returns "T235" new RefinedSoundex().encode("testing") returns "T6036084" Gary > -----Original Message----- > From: Inger, Matthew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2003 09:08 > To: 'Jakarta Commons Developers List' > Subject: [codec] Soundex / Refined Soundex > > Can anyone tell me the difference between these two soundex > implementations?
