[seqfan] Levenshtein distances with hyphenated number names

[Eric Angelini]

Hello SeqFans,

 S = 3   7   13   16   19   27  STOP
LD =   4   6    3    3    8

First differences are also Levenshtein distances
between the integers *written in English, inclu-
ding hyphenation*:

three seven thirteen sixteen nineteen twenty-seven
     4     6        3       3        8

Is it possible to find a longer sequence than this
one?

Best,
É.
