*Edit Distance

题目：

Given two words word1 and word2, find the minimum number of steps required to convert word1 to word2. (each operation is counted as 1 step.)

You have the following 3 operations permitted on a word:

• Insert a character
• Delete a character
• Replace a character

Example

Given word1 = "mart" and word2 = "karma", return 3.
