The Optimal String Alignment variant of Damerau–Levenshtein (sometimes called the restricted edit distance) computes the number of edit operations needed to make the strings equal under the condition that no substring is edited more than once, whereas the true Damerau–Levenshtein presents no such restriction.

The Optimal String Alignment variant of Damerau–Levenshtein (sometimes called the restricted edit distance) computes the number of edit operations needed to make the strings equal under the condition that **no substring is edited more than once**, whereas the true Damerau–Levenshtein presents no such restriction.

Note that for the optimal string alignment distance, the triangle inequality does not hold and so it is not a true metric.
