Hi Alex,
just started on the "Soundex Matching" example here:
http://pleac.sourceforge.net/pleac_picolisp/strings.html
It looks like a nice program, however, it doen't state what kind of input
it expects :)
I know about soundex, but my current knowledge of PicoLisp is not yet
advanced enough.

Typically personal names, but can be any string:
: (soundex "Hello World")
Hi Alex,
thx. for taking time to check!!!
I corrected those points you mention.
Thx. to you too :)
Because I now just try to do this stuff fast, I only have a bit of time to
look at functions in more detail.
I really am impressed by the many useful functions.
Also nice that strings and symbols
Hi Alex,
ah, OK!!
Well, then this might be a better show off:
: (soundex "Smith")
-> "S530"
: (soundex "Smithe")
-> "S530"
: (soundex "Smyithe")
-> "S530"
because that shows what soundex is really about, don't you think?!
Also, the soundex algorith is really dependent on the language used.
E.g

Exactly. Mapping "similar" names to the same key.

Hi Alex,
since I notice that getpwent seems to disbehave under Windows WSL I'll
leave the following out if you agree:

Hi Alex,
the results of the functions below do not reflect the common outcomes in
math AFAICT.
But maybe you had other intentions?
E.G.:
: (deg2rad 90)
-> 2
Result 2 where I expected something like 1.5707963268.
Any ideas?

Hi,
in the PLEAC docs there are a few references to functions in separate
libraries.
Are those library functions referenced somewhere on the web?
With that I mean like this: https://software-lab.de/doc/ref.html#fun
I'd like to have links to those if possible.
If those reference do not exist, the

You should try (deg2rad 90.0) :)

I see. 'getpwent' is Unix-specific. On

I'm afraid they are not ...
