=========

The phonetics module computes the phonetic key of a string using different algorithms.

* Soundex
* NYSISS
* Metaphone
* Double Metaphone

The phonetics module defines the following function:

phonetics.soundex(source[, size=4])
Use the soundex algorithm to create the phonetic key of the *source string.

phonetics.nysiis(source)
Use the New York State Identification and Intelligence System to create the phonetic key of the *source string.

phonetics.metaphone(source)
Use the metaphone algorithm to create the phonetic key of the *source string.

phonetics.dmetaphone(source)
Use the double methaphone algorithm to create the phonetic key of the *source string.


Based on `Lawrence Philips' Metaphone Algorithm <http://aspell.net/metaphone/>`_
