  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Levenshtein distance implementation and the repository’s JavaScript algorithm structure. Then work through the unchecked algorithms in the issue, beginning with one pattern-search or sequence-comparison item. Done means the selected algorithms are implemented and the checklist accurately reflects completion.
