Soundex Example 1

Posted by attriel September 23rd, 2008

Encoding the name of the blog (Deadbeef):

We retain the D

Then we encode D B and F.

D: 3

B: 1

F: 1

So our partial value (after step 2) is : Dea31ee1

Step 3 makes no change (Note that the two 1′s are not currently by each other)

Step 4 removes the “non encoded letters” (vowels), giving us: D311

Step 5 limits us to three digits, which is all we had anyway.

So the SNDX for DEADBEEF is D311
