this repository contains my implementation of the next kata (the long standing Soundex algorithm) in C++.

The long-standing Soundex algorithms encodes word into a letter plus three digits, mapping similarly sounding word to the same encodings.

Here are the rules for Soundex, per Wikipedia: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundex)

• Retain the first letter. Drop all other occurrences of a, e, i, o, u, y, h, w.

• Replace consonants with digits (after the first letter):

  b, f, p, v: 1

  c, g, j, k, q, s, x, z: 2

  d, t: 3

  l: 4

  m, n: 5

  r: 6

• If two adjacent letters encode to the same number, encode them instead as a single number. Also, do so if two letters with the same number are separated by "h" or "w" (but code them twice if separated by a vowel). This rule also applies to the first letter.

• Stop when you have a letter and three digits. Zero-pad if needed.

Simply copy (clone the repository) and see and read it.
