In this lesson, Alvin explores the strategy to solving the following interview problem:
Write a function, anagrams, that takes in two strings as arguments. The function should return a boolean indicating whether or not the strings are anagrams. Anagrams are strings that contain the same characters, but in any order.
anagrams('restful', 'fluster') # -> True
anagrams('cats', 'tocs') # -> False
anagrams('monkeyswrite', 'newyorktimes') # -> True
anagrams('paper', 'reapa') # -> False
If you need additional support taking these DSA skills and actually applying them, take Alvin's complete data structures and algorithms course on Structy. You can try out the concepts yourself in their interactive code editor and learn advanced DSA patterns like stack exhaustive recursion.
