Is it possible to merge two tables in Power Query Editor (Power BI) with Python fuzzy matching?

Merge two tables in power query editor (Power BI) based on string similarity with Python

Consider the tables bellow:

Table1 Table1 | Name | ... | | ------ | --- | | Apple Fruit A11 | ... | | Banana Fruit B12 | ... | | ... | ... |

Table2 Table2 | Name | Value | | ------ | ----- | | Apple A11R/T | 40 | | B4n4n4 Fruit B12_T | 50 | | Berry A11 | 60 | | ... | ... |

I want to get the Value from Table2 into Table1. But for some reason when I use the built-in power query editor merge with fuzzy matching. It will match Apple Fruit A11 with Berry A11 instead of Apple A11 R/T. I've read the documentation, and it says that the built-in function works best with single words. I tried to remove spaces both from Table1[Name] and Table2[Name] but it didn't improve results.

I looked around trying to find a solution, but wasn't able to figure out yet. Is there a way to do this using python? Or is there a simpler solution?

The results that I am expecting:

Table1 Expected Result | Name | ... | Table2.Name | Table2.Value | | ------ | --- |---| --- | | Apple Fruit A11 | ... |Apple A11R/T |40 | | Banana Fruit B12 | ... |B4n4n4 Fruit B12_T |50 | | ... | ... |... |... |

--- For some reason the tables are not showing up like the preview, that's why there are also images for each table.

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
