To test for a loose correlation you will need to use 'Fuzzy matching' there are many methods and the algorithms can be quite complex to implement. I suggest you start researching 'Levenshtein distance'

use this statements with including string header string s1, s2; if(s1==s2) or bool x=s1.compare(s2); // returns true or false if(s1>s2) if(s1<s2)
