With reference to exercism/exercism#4155 (comment) I propose making the language of this exercise easier for non-english speakers.

Looks good, just a small misspelling.

interesting thing - before this PR there were two instances of "Hamming distance" and one instance of "Hamming difference".

After this PR there would be one instance of "Hamming distance" and three of "hamming difference".

I suggest that this would be a good time to discuss whether:

  • This PR is a good time to change to using just one of those two options
  • It is good to use just one of those two options, but can just file an issue for it and don't need to do it in this PR
  • It is good to use both of these options, therefore no changes need be made here

Nice catch @petertseng. I think it should be hamming distance. Search for hamming difference yields hamming distance....

Happy to change it to "hamming distance" everywhere.

Happy to change it to "hamming distance" everywhere.

I'm also in favor of using "hamming distance".
