@linkdotnet/stringoperations

String Operations for TypeScript

This library implements some basic string algorithm as well as data structures for a better way of handling strings.

How to install

npm i @linkdotnet/stringoperations

How to use

import { Trie, getLargestCommonSubstring, getLevenshteinDistance } from '@linkdotnet/stringoperations'

const trie = new Trie()
trie.addWord('Hello')
trie.addWord('Helsinki')
trie.addWord('World')
trie.contains('Hello') // true
trie.getWordsWithPrefix('Hel') // [ 'Hello', 'Helsinki' ]

const largestCommonSubstring = getLargestCommonSubstring('testapps', 'appicontest') // test
const distance = getLevenshteinDistance('Hello', 'Hallo') // 1
