in thread Reconciling multiple lists (similar to "merge" in CVS?)

Playing around with some code for this, there are often multiple ways in which differences could be merged. For example, from your test above:

encyclo pedia enc losur e #or encyclop edia enc lo sure

To me, these are both equally legitimate, but is there any criteria upon which the one could be determined to be preferrable to the other?


Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
