You can also create PHP functions that can be used to aggregate data.
<?php
function most_similar(&$context, $string, $source_str)
{
/* Calculate the similarity between two strings */
$sim = similar_text($string, $source_str);
if (empty($context) || $sim > $context['sim']) {
$context = array('sim'=>$sim, 'title'=>$string);
}
}
function most_similar_finalize(&$context)
{
return $context['title'];
}
$db = sqlite_open(dirname(__FILE__)."/db2.sqlite");
/* bool sqlite_create_aggregate (resource dbhandle, string function_name, mixed step_func, mixed finalize_func [, int num_args]) */
sqlite_create_aggregate($db, 'similar_text', 'most_similar', 'most_similar_finalize', 2);
$title = 'mesg #2';
echo "Most Similar title to '{$title}' according to similar_text() is: ";
echo sqlite_single_query("SELECT similar_text(title, '{$title}') FROM messages", $db);
echo "<br />\n";
?>
