pat | : | string |
text | : | string |
tol | : | {0, posint} |
Returns: {posint, -1}
Synopsis: The tolerance tol specifies how many mismatches are allowed between the pattern pat and the body of text text. If pat is found in text (within tol mistmatches), the offset of the character before the place where pat was found in text is returned. If it is not, -1 is returned. Note, spaces count as mismatches.
Examples:
> ApproxSearchString('hallo', 'AAAAAAAAHeLLoBBBBB', 1); # german to english > ApproxSearchString('nothing', 'N.O.T.H.I.N.G.', 4); # nothing found
