Paddy, the line that was changed was the first line from "Petter" to "Peter", so this is OK.
I have more trouble understanding the 0'th example though.
It looks to me like either 2 added and 1 removed OR 2 changed and 1 added. One thing is for sure, the difference shows in THREE lines, so the explanation's numbers need to add up. What am I missing here?
I am not sure of your result for Example1.
Gong from:
Peter
David
Andrew
To:
Peter
David
Zahid
Can be done with either:
A.1) Locate the Third line.
A.2) Change the line to be Zahid.
Or:
B.1) Locate the second line.
B.2) remove the next line.
B.3) Add a line after the current, of Zahid.
You could do sequence A followed by sequence B but sequence B after sequence A would not change the text.
So, the correct result for me would be either:
Removed 1 line, added 1 line.
Or:
Changed 1 line.
But not both.
Cheers, Paddy.
Good point Jan. I'll adjust the distance calculation measure with this an an example. The numbers I used are rough guesses and I wanted to test my way into the best match.

Fixed that 0th example now.
