Support to select longest available match without overlap #127

Closed giriannamalai closed 2 years ago

giriannamalai commented 4 years ago

We need support for longest match without overlapping.

Ex: Keyword 1: python Keyword 2: Python programming

After running iteration over the following sentence: I love python programming.

Result should be "Python programming". Not both "Python and Python Programming"
