The RNYSIIS routine matches two strings using an algorithm based on a standard NYSIIS algorithm. This routine reverses the input strings before building the NYSIIS code. For example, if the input was ‘JOHN SMITH’, before building the code the system will read it as ‘HTIMS NHOJ.’ See NYSIIS Routine for a layout of the algorithm.
