Rapid fuzzy string matching in Python and C++ using the Levenshtein Distance
RapidFuzz is a fast string matching library for Python and C++, which is using the string similarity calculations from FuzzyWuzzy. However there are a couple of aspects that set RapidFuzz apart from FuzzyWuzzy: - It is MIT licensed so it can be used whichever License you might want to choose for your project, while you're forced to adopt the GPL license when using FuzzyWuzzy - It provides many string_metrics like hamming or jaro_winkler, which are not included in FuzzyWuzzy - It is mostly written in C++ and on top of this comes with a lot of Algorithmic improvements to make string matching even faster, while still providing the same results. For detailed benchmarks check the documentation - Fixes multiple bugs in the partial_ratio implementation
