# phonet4java

![Maven Central version](https://img.shields.io/maven-central/v/de.zedlitz/phonet4java)

![Coverage](.github/badges/jacoco.svg)

The project provides Java implementations for several phonetic algorithms like:

  * Soundex

  * refined Soundex

  * Kölner Phonetik

  * Daitch-Mokotoff

  * Phonet

## Usage

The usage is very simple. Just create an instance of the required encoder and invoke the `code` method. Here is a simple example.

	Coder c = new Phonet2();

	c.code("Kiel");

### Maven

To use the library you can simply add a dependency to `phonet4java` like this:

	

		de.zedlitz

		phonet4java

		1.2.0

	

## Example

Here are some example to get an impression how the different algorithms work:

| input | Soundex | ref. Soundex | Daitch-Mokotoff | Kölner Phonetik | Phonet | Phonet (var. 2) |
