# hammingDistance

> Calculate the [Hamming distance][hamming-distance] between two equal-length strings.
<!-- Package usage documentation. -->

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var hammingDistance = require( '@stdlib/string/base/distances/hamming' );
```

#### hammingDistance( s1, s2 )

Calculates the [Hamming distance][hamming-distance] between two equal-length strings.

```javascript
var dist = hammingDistance( 'frog', 'from' );
// returns 1

dist = hammingDistance( 'tooth', 'froth' );
// returns 2

dist = hammingDistance( 'cat', 'cot' );
// returns 1

dist = hammingDistance( '', '' );
// returns 0

dist = hammingDistance( '1638452297', '2311638451' );
// returns 10
```

</section>

<!-- Package notes. Make sure to keep an empty line after the `section` element and another before the `/section` close. -->

<section class="notes">

## Notes

- If the two strings differ in length, the [Hamming distance][hamming-distance] is not defined. Consequently, when provided two input strings of unequal length, the function returns a sentinel value of `-1`.
- As the function calculates the [Hamming distance][hamming-distance] by comparing UTF-16 code units, the function should behave as expected for strings composed of most characters. However, the function is likely to not behave as expected if strings contain visual characters composed of multiple Unicode code points, such as certain mathematical symbols and grapheme clusters (e.g., emojis).

## Examples

```javascript
var hammingDistance = require( '@stdlib/string/base/distances/hamming' );

var dist = hammingDistance( 'algorithms', 'altruistic' );
// returns 7

dist = hammingDistance( 'elephant', 'Tashkent' );
// returns 6

dist = hammingDistance( 'javascript', 'typescript' );
// returns 4

dist = hammingDistance( 'hamming', 'ladybug' );
// returns 5

{{alias}}( s1, s2 )
Calculates the Hamming distance between two equal-length input strings.

The function returns a sentinel value of -1 if the input string lengths
differ.

Parameters
----------
s1: string
First input string.

s2: string
Second input string.

Returns
-------
out: number
Hamming distance.

Examples
--------
> var d = {{alias}}( 'algorithms', 'altruistic' )
7
> d = {{alias}}( 'elephant', 'hippopod' )
7
> d = {{alias}}( 'javascript', 'typescript' )
4
> d = {{alias}}( 'levenshtein', 'levitations' )
8
> d = {{alias}}( 'sacrifice', 'paradisal' )
8
