### Calculate Levenshtein Distance and Find Closest String (Deno)

Source: https://github.com/ka-weihe/fastest-levenshtein/blob/master/README.md

Shows how to import and use the `distance` and `closest` functions from the fastest-levenshtein library within the Deno runtime. This example highlights the library's compatibility with Deno's import system.

```javascript
import {distance, closest} from 'https://deno.land/x/fastest_levenshtein/mod.ts'

// Print levenshtein-distance between 'fast' and 'faster' 
console.log(distance('fast', 'faster'))
//=> 2

// Print string from array with lowest edit-distance to 'fast'
console.log(closest('fast', ['slow', 'faster', 'fastest']))
//=> 'faster'
```

### Calculate Levenshtein Distance and Find Closest String (Node.js)

Source: https://github.com/ka-weihe/fastest-levenshtein/blob/master/README.md

Demonstrates how to use the `distance` and `closest` functions from the fastest-levenshtein library in a Node.js environment. The `distance` function calculates the edit distance between two strings, while `closest` finds the string in an array that is most similar to a target string.

```javascript
const {distance, closest} = require('fastest-levenshtein')

// Print levenshtein-distance between 'fast' and 'faster' 
console.log(distance('fast', 'faster'))
//=> 2

// Print string from array with lowest edit-distance to 'fast'
console.log(closest('fast', ['slow', 'faster', 'fastest']))
//=> 'faster'
```
