Test	Status	Code Input and Output
1	Pass	%% s1 = 'I do not like MATLAB'; s2 = 'I love MATLAB a lot'; d_correct = 4; assert(isequal(modlevenshtein(s1,s2),d_correct))
2	Pass	%% s1 = 'Which words need to be edited?'; s2 = 'Can you tell which words need to be edited?'; d_correct = 3; assert(isequal(modlevenshtein(s1,s2),d_correct))
3	Pass	%% s1 = 'Are these strings identical?'; s2 = 'These strings are not identical!'; d_correct = 3; assert(isequal(modlevenshtein(s1,s2),d_correct))
4	Pass	%% s1 = 'Settlers of Catan is my favorite game'; s2 = 'Tic-tac-toe is also one of my favorite games'; d_correct = 6; assert(isequal(modlevenshtein(s1,s2),d_correct))
5	Pass	%% s1 = 'This one should be simple, but maybe it isn''t'; s2 = 'This one should be simple, but maybe it isn''t'; d_correct = 0; assert(isequal(modlevenshtein(s1,s2),d_correct))
6	Pass	%% s1 = 'Testing, testing, one, two, three,...'; s2 = 'Testing, testing, one, two,...'; d_correct = 1; assert(isequal(modlevenshtein(s1,s2),d_correct))
7	Pass	%% s1 = 'How many edits do you think there are in this example? I don''t know!'; s2 = 'Well, it is hard to tell how many edits are required because there are big differences in the two strings.'; d_correct = 15; assert(isequal(modlevenshtein(s1,s2),d_correct))
