To read more about the purpose of the levenshtein distance, see here.
Example 1
alert($levenshtein distance(300,900))
Running the alert command will produce the levenshtein distance between the numbers 300 and 900, which is 1.
Example 2
alert($levenshtein distance("rosettacode","raisethysword"))
Running the alert command will produce the levenshtein distance between the strings "rosettacode" and "raisethysword", which is 8.
