EDITDIST finds the edit distance between strings s1 and s2. The Edit Distance is defined as the minimum number of single-character edit operations (deletions, insertions, and/or replacements) that would convert s1 into s2 or vice-versa. Uses an efficient dynamic programming algorithm. Useful for gene sequence matching, among other applications.
Tested under MATLAB 5.3, but should also work under versions 4.x also.
