Fuzzy string matching in Python

Description

Various methods for fuzzy matching of strings in Python, including:

- String similarity: Gives a measure of string similarity between 0 and 100.

- Partial string similarity: Inconsistent substrings are a common problem

when string matching. To get around it, use a "best partial" heuristic

when two strings are of noticeably different lengths.

- Token sort: This approach involves tokenizing the string in question,

sorting the tokens alphabetically, and then joining them back into a

string.

- Token set: A slightly more flexible approach. Tokenize both strings, but

instead of immediately sorting and comparing, split the tokens into two

groups: intersection and remainder.
