About the Text Compare Tool
The Text Compare tool is an essential utility for developers, writers, and anyone who needs to find differences between two pieces of text. It provides a clear, side-by-side comparison that highlights insertions, deletions, and modifications.
Why Use a Diff Tool?
- Code Reviews: Quickly see what has changed between two versions of a file before merging.
- Document Auditing: Easily spot modifications in legal documents, contracts, or reports.
- Configuration Management: Compare configuration files to identify changes that might affect an application's behavior.
How It Works
This tool uses a well-known algorithm called the Longest Common Subsequence to compare the two text inputs line by line. It then highlights the lines that have been added, removed, or changed, giving you an immediate visual representation of the differences.
