StrUtils.Soundex Function

Converts a string into its Soundex representation.

Pascal
function Soundex(const AText: string; ALength: TSoundexLength = 4): string;
C++
AnsiString Soundex(const AnsiString AText, TSoundexLength ALength = 4);

Soundex converts the string specified by AText into a phonetic representation where each character of the resulting string represents one of six families of similar phonemes. It returns up to the first ALength Soundex codes in the resulting string representation.
