Please explain what you are going to do with this in ArcMap. You have gotten help before and yet you keep asking for more on the same topic. What are all these requests accomplishing? Why you are so desperate to do these things? Are these functions being developed for class assignments?

I cannot fit these functions to any obvious discipline that uses ArcMap.

I second Richard on this. What does the comparison of linguistic signatures has to do with GIS?

In the recent past I answered a post similar to yours, here:
http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/103785-Hey-I-was-wondering-about-this-function-problem-for-a-while

Since all you posts are not related to GIS, you can probably better take your questions to a forum like stackoverflow?
