# plain-hamming [![build status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/thlorenz/plain-hamming.png)](http://travis-ci.org/thlorenz/plain-hamming)

Calculates the [Hamming distance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance) between two strings.

Uses very simple algorithm that does no input checking to be faster, therefore make sure that the arguments you pass in

are both strings of equal length.

```js

const plainHamming = require('plain-hamming')

plainHamming('hello', 'hello')  // => 0

plainHamming('hello', 'he1lo')  // => 1

plainHamming('hello', 'he11o')  // => 2

plainHamming('hello', 'h3llo')  // => 1

plainHamming('hello', 'h3ll0')  // => 2

```

## Installation
