# The dictionary is just an arbitrary collection of strings. | |
# It need not contain English words, e.g., 'etlsm'. | |
dictionary = ['acres', 'cares', 'Cesar', 'races', 'smelt', 'melts', 'etlsm'] | |
# If the input word happens to be in the dictionary, it should be in the the returned array, too. | |
# The list should also be case-insensitive. | |
anagrams_for('acres', dictionary) # => ['acres', 'cares', 'Cesar', 'races'] | |
anagrams_for('ACRES', dictionary) # => ['acres', 'cares', 'Cesar', 'races'] | |
anagrams_for('Cesar', dictionary) # => ['acres', 'cares', 'Cesar', 'races'] | |
# Although "sacre" is not *in* the dictionary, several words in the dictionary are anagrams of "sacre" | |
anagrams_for('sacre', dictionary) # => ['acres', 'cares', 'Cesar', 'races'] | |
# Neither the input word nor the words in the dictionary need to be valid English words | |
anagrams_for('etlsm', dictionary) # => ['smelt', 'melts', 'etlsm'] | |
anagrams_for('unicorn', dictionary) # => [] |
