Soundex

Weights each char in String and returns a 4 char code. For example Soundex("sneider") is equal to Soundex("snider").

Usage:

Soundex( StringToCheck )

Returns:

4 Char Soundex code. The weight is calculated as follows:

  • all chars not in [a-z] or [A-Z] -> -1
  • the chars [aeiouyhw] -> ignored
  • chars [bfpv] -> 1
  • chars [cgjkqsxz] ->2
  • chars [dt] ->3
  • chars[l] ->4
  • chars[mn] ->5
  • chars[r] ->6

If the returned soundex code is 2 or 3 chars, then 0 chars are appended

If the returned soundex code is more than 4 chars, then all chars after the 4th char will be ignored.

Examples:

Soundex("sneider") ==  Soundex("snider")
