 * 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>
