Coding help with C++

[abdellah123]

I am currently trying to make a program that would pretty much take data from a radio, the data would be all the played songs and how many times they have been played, and it would transfer it into a top 50 count down.. the order goes by the most played.

Now my problem is, DJ's don't always have the same name for the songs which causes me a problem.
Is there a way to recognize a song using a variable between 0 and 10?

you don't need C++ for that.

if it's for your radio then php is probably best for that isn't it?

As others have mentioned, PHP is probably more suitable for this (since you're just compiling a list).

Have a look into PHP similar_text() function: http://php.net/manual/en/function.similar-text.php

For example:


<?php
function similarity($word1,$word2){
// Returns string similarity on a scale of 1-10.
similar_text($word1,$word2,$percentage);
return round($percentage/10);
}
echo similarity("telly","jelly") . "/10";
?>
