Text completion
Write a program that takes in a user inputted word and prints out possible words that are valid in the English dictionary. Please state any dictionaries or files/binaries/dependencies used in your program. Do show the similarity of the inputted word and outcome as a percentage. Any algorithm can be used to accomplish this task.
