//! # Stringmetrics library
//!
//! A library for applying text- and token- based comparison algorithms to
//! determine the similarity of two strings or sets. The core modules are
//! ['algorithms'], which contains algorithms for determining closeness, and
//! ['collectors'] which has helper functions for preparing anything for
//! tokenization and comparison.
//!
//! Note that this module is very much a work in progress, and it is likely that
//! interfaces may change. Large parts of this module are still under
//! construction. The eventual goal is to implement many of the metrics listed
//! on [this wikipedia page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_metric),
//! generalized to any hashable datatype.
