Utilities for Joining Dataframes with Inexact Matching R package fozziejoin version 0.0.13 Provides functions for joining data frames based on inexact criteria, including string distance, Manhattan distance, Euclidean distance, and interval overlap. This API is designed as a modern, performance-oriented alternative to the 'fuzzyjoin' package (Robinson 2026) <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.fuzzyjoin>. String distance functions utilizing 'q-grams' are adapted with permission from the 'textdistance' 'Rust' crate (Orsinium 2024) <https://docs.rs/textdistance/latest/textdistance/>. Other string distance calculations rely on the 'rapidfuzz' 'Rust' crate (Bachmann 2023) <https://docs.rs/rapidfuzz/0.5.0/rapidfuzz/>. Interval joins are backed by a Adelson-Velsky and Landis tree as implemented by the 'interavl' 'Rust' crate <https://docs.rs/interavl/0.5.0/interavl/>.
