note 109507 added to function.similar-text

Hey there, Be aware when using this function, that the order of passing the strings is very important if you want to calculate the percentage of similarity, in fact, altering the variables will give a very different result, example : $var_1 = 'PHP IS GREAT'; $var_2 = 'WITH MYSQL'; similar_text($var_1, $var_2, $percent); echo $percent; // 27.272727272727 similar_text($var_2, $var_1, $percent); echo $percent; // 18.181818181818 ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 41.141.151.146 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.similar-text.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/109507 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109507/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109507/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109507/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109507/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109507/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109507/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109507 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/109507 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
