Measuring Small changes over large documents

Open nfeliccia opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Greetings fuzzers:

I am looking to measure edits over large documents. I notice that Fuzzy returns only a 2 digit integer showing the ratio. Is there a historical reason for this? Thanks in advance. NIC.

I do not know any specific reason for this design decision. I personally decided to go with floating point in my own implementation of the algorithms (RapidFuzz), since I could not see any good reason to reduce the precision.
