* Class Name: Arabic Soundex
*
* Filename: Soundex.php
*
* Original Author(s): Khaled Al-Sham'aa <khaled@ar-php.org>
*
* Purpose: Arabic soundex algorithm takes Arabic word as an input
* and produces a character string which identifies a set words
* that are (roughly) phonetically alike.
*

*
* Arabic Soundex
*
* PHP class for Arabic soundex algorithm takes Arabic word as an input and
* produces a character string which identifies a set words of those are
* (roughly) phonetically alike.
*
* Terms that are often misspelled can be a problem for database designers. Names,
* for example, are variable length, can have strange spellings, and they are not
* unique. Words can be misspelled or have multiple spellings, especially across
* different cultures or national sources.
*
* To solve this problem, we need phonetic algorithms which can find similar
* sounding terms and names. Just such a family of algorithms exists and is called
* SoundExes, after the first patented version.
*
* A Soundex search algorithm takes a word, such as a person's name, as input and
* produces a character string which identifies a set of words that are (roughly)
* phonetically alike. It is very handy for searching large databases when the user
* has incomplete data.
*
* The original Soundex algorithm was patented by Margaret O'Dell and Robert
* C. Russell in 1918. The method is based on the six phonetic classifications of
* human speech sounds (bilabial, labiodental, dental, alveolar, velar, and
* glottal), which in turn are based on where you put your lips and tongue to make
* the sounds.
*
* Soundex function that is available in PHP, but it has been limited to English and
* other Latin-based languages. This function described in PHP manual as the
* following: Soundex keys have the property that words pronounced similarly produce
* the same soundex key, and can thus be used to simplify searches in databases
* where you know the pronunciation but not the spelling. This soundex function
* returns string of 4 characters long, starting with a letter.
*
* We develop this class as an Arabic counterpart to English Soundex, it handle an
* Arabic input string formatted in UTF-8 character set to return Soundex key
* equivalent to normal soundex function in PHP even for English and other
* Latin-based languages because the original algorithm focus on phonetically
* characters alike not the meaning of the word itself.
*
* Example:
* <code>
* include('./I18N/Arabic.php');
* $obj = new I18N_Arabic('Soundex');
*
* $soundex = $obj->soundex($name);
* </code>
