Calculate the Hamming distance between two strings.

The Hamming distance measures the minimum number of substitutions required to change one string into the other of equal length.

Demo

Install

npm install hamming

Usage

const hammingDistance = require('hamming');

console.log(hammingDistance('foo', 'foo')); // 0
console.log(hammingDistance('for', 'foo')); // 1
console.log(hammingDistance('foobar', 'fudbaz')); // 3
console.log(hammingDistance('unequal', 'length')); // null

Hamming distance requires both strings to have the same length.
