## Introduction
The Levenshtein Python C extension module contains functions for fast
computation of:

* Levenshtein (edit) distance, and edit operations
* string similarity
* approximate median strings, and generally string averaging
* string sequence and set similarity

> :warning: The package was renamed to `Levenshtein` and can be found [here](https://github.com/rapidfuzz/Levenshtein).
  The `python-Levenshtein` package will continue to be updated alongside the new package

## Requirements
* Python 3.8 or later

## Installation
```bash
pip install levenshtein
```

## Documentation

The documentation for the current version can be found at [https://rapidfuzz.github.io/Levenshtein/](https://rapidfuzz.github.io/Levenshtein/)

## Support the project
