Hello, I must make one practice for my studies that makes me crazy.

I must make a text search by similarity of pattern within different texts, the result must be the similarity percentage that presents/displays each text, for example what shows to the function of search of the WWW www.oracle.com. Well, somebody knows where I can find the algorithm that allows me to do it?

Thanks in advance.

Very simple,

1. The text to look for is a word which we wished to look for in the differents tittles and summaries of books.

2. The tittles and summaries of each book are stored in a table in varchar2 that is where we must do the search.

3. The percentage not like calculating it since what I want to do it is a function of search like the one of www.oracle.com where these shows percentage of coincidence of the word and its web pages.

Thanx.
