checkio String Conversion

题目：

You are given two strings, line1 and line2. Answer, what is the smallest number of operations you need to do in order to transform line1 into the line2?

Possible operations:

Delete one letter from one of the strings.
Insert one letter into one of the strings.
Replace one of the letters in one of the strings with another letter.
Input: Two arguments - two strings.

Output: An int, the minimum number of operations.

Example:

steps_to_convert(‘line1’, ‘line1’) == 0
steps_to_convert(‘line1’, ‘line2’) == 1
steps_to_convert(‘ine’, ‘line2’) == 2

代码：

def steps_to_convert(line1, line2):
    import difflib    
    x = len(line1)-len(line2)
    if x < 0:
        x =-x
    
    d = difflib.Differ()
    mm = list(d.compare(line1,line2))
    y = 0

    for i in mm:
    	if '-' in i:
    		y += 1
    	elif '+' in i:
    		y += 1
    if int(y/2) >= x:
    	r = int(y/2)
    else:
    	r = x
        
    return r
