+//
+// fuzzy_match_simple(...)
+// Returns true if each character in pattern is found sequentially within
+// str
+//
+// fuzzy_match(...)
+// Returns true if pattern is found AND calculates a score.
+// Performs exhaustive search via recursion to find all possible matches and
+// match with highest score. Scores values have no intrinsic meaning.
+// Possible score range is not normalized and varies with pattern. Recursion
+// is limited internally (default=10) to prevent degenerate cases
+// (pattern="aaaaaa" str="aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa") Uses uint8_t for
+// match indices. Therefore patterns are limited to 256 characters. Score
+// system should be tuned for YOUR use case. Words, sentences, file names,
+// or method names all prefer different tuning.
