Fuzzy matching is a match between two strings based on a measurement difference called Levenshtein distance. The distance is settable with the fuzzy command, and ASPL provides five set operators to do fuzzy set operations: y&, yU, y\, yD,yP and their corresponding synonymous y*&, y*U, y*\, y*D, y*P.
If the element names are likely to be similar, one can use the fuzzy set operations to group them according to their quantified linguistic distance.
■ The fuzzy Command
At the ASPL prompt when you type the command fuzzy the Levenshtein distance is printed as an integer.
You can set the fuzzy distance by typing fuzzy followed by the integer that represents that distance.
The following example shows fuzzy operations performed in the sample workspace WS1.
