    Needed to do some fuzzy matches in #Laravel with a 5000+ row array to account for differently spelled company names across two APIs. Played with #Levenshtein, #SoundEx and #similar_text in #PHP. Found similar_text worked best by far for this perhaps. Ended up using array_walk to accomplish this with ease. Would love to hear others experiences in doing fuzzy matches between arrays.
