import difflib distance = difflib.ndiff('hello', 'hallo') print(distance)
pip install python-Levenshtein
from Levenshtein import distance distance = distance('kitten', 'sitting') print(distance)This code calculates the Levenshtein distance between the strings 'kitten' and 'sitting' using the distance() function from python-Levenshtein. The output is an integer representing the number of character insertions, deletions, or substitutions required to transform one string into the other. In summary, difflib is a built-in package for computing Levenshtein distance in Python, while python-Levenshtein is a third-party package that can be installed with pip. Both packages provide simple and efficient ways to calculate the minimum number of character changes required to transform one string into another.
