Abstract

A computer-implemented method for matching user inputted text to stored text. The user inputted text is compared to each of the text strings stored in a database using a Levenshtein distance algorithm. For each comparison, the Levenshtein distance is analyzed to determine exact matches, non-matches, and probable matches. Probable matches are further analyzed using a keyboard distance algorithm to differentiate between matches and non-matches.
