reasons.

Besides formatting and typo fixes I think the only thing noteworthy is

The Soundex code is using to find similar sounds words.
The Soundex code is used to find similar sounding words.
Soundex code begins with the first letter of the word followed by a

three-digit code. This is the algorithm:
0. Every letter in the word change by a digit (excluding the first letter).
0. Every letter in the word beyond the first letter is replaced by a digit.
1. Replace all pairs of the same code by single code (ex. R011235 -> R01235).
2. Remove all 0-codes (ex. R01235 -> R1235).
3. If length of code is > 4, get only first 4 codes (ex. R1235 -> R123).
