   You can use this to call deprecated methods without warnings (supporting old sdk's for example)
   or, you can use it in place of performSelector: where you need non-object params, or multiple
   params.

   ie: ...

   int result = 0;
   int index = 12;
   NSArray *array = myArray;

Advantage over Other Algorithms

The diff output is more specific:

[I]f a whole block of text is moved, then all of it, rather than just the beginning and end, is detected as changed.

>The algorithm described here avoids these difficulties. It detects differences that correspond very closely to our intuitive notion of difference.
