+		An implementation of the Wagner-Fischer dynamic programming algorithm to
+		find the optimal edit script and cost between two sequences.
+		
+		The implementation in this package is specialised to sequences represented
+		with &quot;Data.Vector&quot; but is otherwise agnostic to:
+		
+		* The type of values in the vectors;
+		
+		* The type representing edit operations; and
+		
+		* The type representing the cost of operations.
