7 * This function implements the Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm to
8 * calculate a distance between strings.
9 *
10 * Basically, it says how many letters need to be swapped, substituted,
11 * deleted from, or added to string1, at least, to get string2.
12 *
13 * The idea is to build a distance matrix for the substrings of both
14 * strings. To avoid a large space complexity, only the last three rows
15 * are kept in memory (if swaps had the same or higher cost as one deletion
16 * plus one insertion, only two rows would be needed).
17 *
18 * At any stage, "i + 1" denotes the length of the current substring of
19 * string1 that the distance is calculated for.
20 *
21 * row2 holds the current row, row1 the previous row (i.e. for the substring
22 * of string1 of length "i"), and row0 the row before that.
23 *
24 * In other words, at the start of the big loop, row2[j + 1] contains the
25 * Damerau-Levenshtein distance between the substring of string1 of length
26 * "i" and the substring of string2 of length "j + 1".
27 *
28 * All the big loop does is determine the partial minimum-cost paths.
29 *
30 * It does so by calculating the costs of the path ending in characters
31 * i (in string1) and j (in string2), respectively, given that the last
32 * operation is a substition, a swap, a deletion, or an insertion.
33 *
34 * This implementation allows the costs to be weighted:
35 *
36 * - w (as in "sWap")
37 * - s (as in "Substitution")
38 * - a (for insertion, AKA "Add")
39 * - d (as in "Deletion")
40 *
41 * Note that this algorithm calculates a distance _iff_ d == a.
