    /*
     * Compute Levenshtein distance between two strings.
     * Given two strings, compute the Levenshtein distance between them i.e.
     * the minimum number of edits required to convert one string into the other.
     *
     * For example, the Levenshtein distance between "kitten" and "sitting" is 3.
     * The minimum steps required to transform the former into latter are:
     *      kitten → sitten (substitution of "s" for "k")
     *      sitten → sittin (substitution of "i" for "e")
     *      sittin → sitting (insertion of "g" at the end)
     *
     * Runtime Complexity:
     * Quadratic, O(n2)
     *
     * Memory Complexity:
     * Quadratic, O(n2)
     *
     * Levenshtein distance 'LD' is  a measure of the difference between two strings s1 and s2.
     * It is the minimum number of deletions, insertions, or substitutions required to transform s1 into s2.
     *
     * if s1 is empty, return length of s2
     * if s2 is empty, return length of s1
     * if last characters of s1 and s2 match, initialize 'cost' to 0, otherwise initialize 'cost' to 1
     *      recursively compute 'd1' [(Levenshtein distance of s1 - 1 and s2) + 1 ]
     *      recursively compute 'd2' [(Levenshtein distance of s1 and s2 - 1) + 1]
     *      recursively compute 'd3' [(Levenshtein distance of s1 - 1 and s2 - 1) + cost]
     *      return minimum of d1, d2, d3
     * */
