Hey William, David, Bryan
Thanks a lot for your fast responses. I know the [tabletool] from the tID library and it works really fine.

I will check [listtool] and [ptrdiff_t]

I am very interested in any types of measures and objects avaliable.

But specifically I am interested the "swap distance" or the "edit distance" [1]. I have been trying to implement my self the edit distance and have managed to make a patch according to its Levenshtein implementation [2] from wikipedia, trying to make it work with numbers instead of characters. Although it is a simple algorithm, It is not trivial to implement in PD and still have not managed to make it work properly.

If any one is interested I would appreciate any help. Even finding an object that computes any of these distances; or better making the abstraction work. I guess it could be a useful object for the community.

Thanks again

D

[listtool] ditto for lists (if you are too lazy to dump them into arrays ; )

Hello members of the list

I am very interested in creating a list of objects or abstractions from any PD library (pd-extended  or beyond) used to measure the distance between two arrays or two lists.

Does any of you know one or some?

Thanks a lot for your help!!!

D
