------------------------------------

Hi Joydeep,

I want to begin by apologizing for the time it's taken us to get to your 
contribution. Did you ever continue with it? Have you compared your 
implementation with [the one in Apache Commons 
Text|https://github.com/apache/commons-text/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/text/similarity/LevenshteinDistance.java]
 or [Commons 
Lang|https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringUtils.java#L7731]?
 (I think they follow the same algorithm, from _Algorithms on Strings, Trees 
and Sequences_ by Dan Gusfield and Chas Emerick)
