The difference here is that you have +separated costs for the DELetion and INSertion operations (but with the +default to 1 for both, you obtain the Levenshtein edit distance). But +the most interesting feature is that you can obtain the description of +the edits needed to transform the first string into the second one (not +vice versa: here DELetions are separated from INSertions). |
